Youth Crime
A lot of youths these days find themselves committing crimes for various reasons known to them. From peer pressure to just the basic need to survive... What are your thoughts on this? Why do you think crime among the youths has been on the increase? And what ways do you think they can be stopped?

In a country like mine (Nigeria) we have had all sort of crimes being committed by youngsters, seriously I have asked myself and other around me about what really causes this youths to engage in such crimes? But the answer is not definite.
You see youths being involved in killings for money rituals, recently on the new the image of three boys were shown with a human head, the head being one of their girlfriend's, when this youngsters were asked who gave them instruction to do so , they said it was an old man called an herbalist, that gave them the instructions on what to do for them to make money.
My thought on that was why wasn't the man in question also being showed on the internet? Someone said because the man might have people in the higher place that's why he wasn't arrested or any of his image being showed. I personally believe if whenever things like this comes up and the instructor are always exposed then the rate of the rituals killings would be reduced.
If there were good infrastructures like good public school for the less privilege and also jobs for people who are willing to work instead of schooling then I believe the crime rates would be reduced , but all this is just wishful thinking, we only pray for Gods grace and protection in our everyday life, because the rate of crimes not only by youngsters but also but adults are becoming too much, if the government create more job opportunities and free schooling, and maybe monthly allowance for youths from age 17-21 then it will reduced crime rates.
