Underage Cultists take over Scout Camp market Ibadan

  Young cultists aged between 9 and 16 years have for long converted the Scout Camp Neighborhood, market, Ibadan, Nigeria to a place of refuge. The under-aged cultists, comprising primary, secondary school students and drop-outs,  engage in  trailing and providing information on potential victims, pick-pocketing at public places, burglary in residential areas among other crimes. The young criminals retreat to the market as a place of safety, whenever they commit crime, just as they make use of illicit substances within the precincts of the market. Sadly, owners of  shops and open stalls at the market give moral and financial support to the young criminals, even though the state owned security network has an office in the market. It is however, disturbing that traders and residents carry on as if all is well, while these criminals continue to commit various crimes with impunity.

Reforming the Economy

It is to the knowledge of millions of Nigerians that the basic social-economic institutions have been destroyed. The challenge now is how to fix the nation's health, education, judiciary and other institutions or ensure a satisfactory turn around. In developed countries, economic activities are the backbone of politics and, as such, distortions or reversal of economic policies or long-term strategic national objectives are rare. Sadly, little or nothing has been achieved to guarantee a good economic foundation, which ought to be the backrest of politics. This is reflected in the awkward power sharing, power rotation and inequitable distribution of resources and good governance. The kind of economic reforms by the government would go a long way in determining if Those-in-Charge are neophytes in the herculean task of governance. Aiding and Abeting Criminals For so long, cultists such as one Wolex and Lekan Adewale of 8 Kehinde Aderibigbe steet, Olorunsogo, Molete, Ibadan, Oyo state, Nigeria, have been terrorizing, robbing and attacking innocent Nigerians in the above-mentioned community and so many others. Although the law enforcement agencies feign ignorance, the confidence exuded by the criminals, who have continued to commit heinous and grievous crimes with impunity, exposes the deep involvement of the police in violent crimes, not only in Oyo state but in different parts of the country.
