520			_aCorruption remains one of the major causes of concern in any state. exacerbates poverty, inequality, and injustice, ultimately fostering more corruption. It undermines the rule of law and remains a root causes of instability and insecurity in any state. It weakens the state's capability for effective governance and may eventually lead to civil war. The National Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Sierra Leone, during its investigation into the causes of the 1990s Civil War in the country, found that the main causes of the war was endemic greed, corruption, and nepotism which deprived the nation of its dignity and reduce most people to a state of poverty. The task of modern United Nations peacekeeping missions are much more complex then traditional responsibilities, sometimes even requiring support for the formation of new institutions. Post-conflict corruption can be a serious impediment to peacebuilding and reconstruction. It may directly affect several key peacebuilding activities in a fragile state. Curbing corruption is thus vital post-conflict environments to strengthen the rule of law, restore trust in public institutions and build and sustain peace. Failing to account for the threats posed by corruption during peacekeeping may put the success of the mission at risk.
