Negatively!!!

As a youth myself and a victim of crime it has become increasingly difficult for me to feel safe in the streets, workplace and even my home. The absence of appropriate role models combined with substance abuse, gender violence and immorality among youth there is a huge negative influence on the youth. Politics, Tendtrepeneurs as well as media and social networks put tremendous pressure on youth, unemployed youth for that matter and thus they resort to all sorts of crime.

Government should implement harsher sentences to child (juvenile) offenders as a tactic that crime does not pay no matter how small the offence may be. being leniant on youths create the impression that its ok to participate in crime as the law is on the side of the offenders!

Because there is still so much poverty, because people are not reaping the kinds of benefits they should and that they expected from the democratic government, because education for the poor is terrible and because crime is a lot more lucrative than working as a "garden boy" or unskilled manual labourer.
