The Solution To Crime Is Education – Murray-Bruce

Crime-Alert
Senator representing Bayelsa East Senatorial district Ben Murray-Bruce has encouraged the country to spend more on educating its youth to ensure a brighter future full of prosperity and devoid of crime.
“If a nation won’t spend her wealth educating her youth, that nation will spend the same wealth fighting insecurity amongst those same youth,” he wrote on micro-blogging site Twitter.
“Almost 100% of Nigeria’s elite became what they are through free education, yet after climbing up we removed the ladder that got us there!
“The facts are clear. When education increases, crime reduces. When it drops, crime increases! Nigeria must invest in education,” he wrote.
The country’s illiterates are believed to be easily brainwashed into getting in criminal acts and other vices threatening the peace of the society. Increasing access to education may be the solution to reducing crime.
