THE ROLE OF EDUCATION IN MANAGING SOCIAL VICES AND YOUTH RESTIVENESS
Abstract
The article examined the role of education in managing social vices and youth restiveness in a globally depressed economy. Incidence of social vices such as examination malpractice, indecent dressing and prostitution, political thugery, drug addiction, cultism, bombings, kidnappings, rape and armed robbery are discussed in the paper. It also discussed conditions that are linked to social vices and youth restiveness including poor governance, violence, repression, corruption, inequality and exclusion which may affect quality, relevance, equity and management of quality education. Academic research papers revealed that if secondary male enrolment is low, youth restiveness, especially in low income countries with a youth budge increases. The interface between incidence of social vices, youth restiveness and quality education in a globally depressed economy is highlighted in the paper. The paper concludes that if government and relevant stakeholders make efforts to provide quality education to its citizens, social vices and youth restiveness might be reduced. The article recommended that even in a globally depressed economy, educational provision should always be placed on first line charge. It also recommended that government, Non-governmental Organizations and other relevant stakeholders should make education accessible to all irrespective of social status. All levels of educational systems should be given good attention as no level should be seen to be inferior to the other as both complement one another in terms of quality and cohesion of the educational system.
Key words: Education, Management, Vices, Youth, Restiveness.
