YOUTH EMPOWERMENT AS A STRATEGY FOR REDUCING CRIME IN NIGERIA

 Abstract 

This study examines youth empowerment as a strategy of reducing crime. This is with a view to establishing the level of socio-economic well-being and how the empowerment of youth can reduce crime in the society. lt highlights the factors that motivate youths to participate in organization and community development It also examines the extent to which socio-economic factors determine the outcome of people’s lives. A structured survey instrument was used in collecting data from a sample of 450 respondents for the study. Data collected were analyzed using Chi-square and t-test analysis.  The findings revealed that there is a significant relationship between youth empowerment and attitude to crime involvement. The findings also revealed that there is significant relationship between male and female attitudes to crime involvement.. It is, therefore, recommended that government’s empowerment programmes should be restructured, if not re-designed, and should be centred on a “participatory approach”, There should also be greater investment in the human capital investment of youths. Besides, government should reach out to youths, regardless of their ethnic, cultural, religious, geographical or political affiliation.
