There has been a swelling rate of sexual abuses and exploitations by UN personnel’s. This illicit act has brought international shame to a global organisation that is prised worldwide with high esteems. The most recent confirmed cases were in Haiti were several young girls of about 11 years old were sexually abused by UN personnel’s (Sonia 2009, para 1-14; Catalina 2015, pp. 1-29; Nordås, & Siri 2013, pp. 512-530). The aim and focus of the study was to identify administrative gaps and provide policy suggestions on how UN personnel’s can legally satisfy their sexual urge during deployments. The research questions were: Why do UN personnel indulge in sexual abuses, and exploitations? What measures have been taken by the UN to remedy sexual cruelty? Primary data were collected with the use of Questionnaires. The reliability and validity of the instrument was tested using exploratory factor analysis (Crunch-bach alpha) and confirmatory factor analysis (Composite reliability). SMART PLS 3 was used for data analysis. Based on data analysed, the study found that the problem continues to be poor administrative policies; the UN has never thought of ways by which it can provide means/policies that could enable it field personnel’s to satisfy their sexual urge in mission stations. Personnel’s are expected to be sexually inactive for the entire duration of their deployment. The study concludes that, security and military policies are the main accelerators of sexual abuses rather than the perpetrators themselves.
