Crime by young people is now seen as one of the most visible forms of violence in society. Around the world, the media report daily on violence by gangs, in schools or by young people on the streets. In Nigeria, youths have been involved with a number of criminal activities ranging from social-related crimes, political-related crimes, economic crimes and even school-related crimes.
