Oyo CAN blames social vices on “get-rich-quick” syndrome
By Adeleye Kunle
The Oyo State chapter of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) has identified get-rich-quick syndrome as one of the causes of social vices such as ritual killings in the country.
The State Chairman of CAN, Apostle Joshua Akinyemiju, said this in an interview with Track News on Thursday in Ibadan.
He was reacting to the rising cases of killings and other vices across the country.
He said that the socio-cultural dynamics characterised by heterogeneous population with an underlying ethno-religious tension was also causing division in the country.
According to him, economic factors such as: unemployment, high inflation and poverty drive insecurity across the country. He said that some youths had chosen to join criminal elements and militant groups for economic survival
