Abstract
Bioterrorism (BWs) is defined as the deliberately use of toxins and microbes, whom provenance is microbial, plant or animal resulting in illness and fatality to humans, livestock and agriculture and livestock. To assign bioweapons in war, and for use in terroristic attacks is credited to easy access to a comprehensive gamut of disease-producing biological pathogens, affordable inexpensive, not easily detected by routine security procedures, and ease in their transshipment from one place to another. Moreover, new advancements in novel and accessible technologies lead to the emergence of such weapons that have consequences for regional and global security. International consultation and co operation is required to obliterate threats, and in securing the culture and defense of peace. The major concern related to bioweapons is due to the rising number of countries that are embroiled in the proliferation of such weapons and their procural by terrorist groups.
