The news of the three teenage girls arrested in Oyo for threatening to kidnap a woman if she didn't pay N10m strikes me as a worrying reflection of how juvenile delinquency is taking increasingly serious forms. Personally, I believe that even if they claim it was all "a joke," the fact that they demanded money and mentioned human body parts demonstrates an intent that cannot be minimized. What's interesting is that the police acted quickly, demonstrating a preventative approach that kept the situation from escalating. For me, the most relevant aspect is that this case opens a debate about the influence of violence on young people and the need for educational and social programs that steer them away from such behavior. Ultimately, beyond the arrests, what's needed is a collective effort to help teenagers find paths to positive development, not criminality.
