By Isyaku Baba
I called them pre-youths because it's still remaining little for them to be fully called youths.

A lots of our teenagers are totally getting it wrong in trying to choose a life style, they have been engaged in so many wrong things due to their over exposure to social life, many of them have been wrongly inspired by these celebrities lifestyle and that has led them to so many bad things in our society.

An incident happened which is making me to write this article particularly, a boy of 19 years old secretly snapped the ATM Card of a man at their place of worship unknowingly after the ATM Card felt down which was shortly found by close by people, the essence of he snapping the ATM card front-and-back was to supposedly hack into his account which he did. Very few days after this incident, the ATM owner got to notice that deductions were made from his account of which he stated that the first transaction the hacker did was of 15,000naira and countless transactions were made which i can't really remember the worths specifically. The 19 year old boy was later traced by his bank transfers from the victim's account to his account and that let to the boy being caught.
He was later questioned for the purpose of these engagements and his excuses were, he wants to purchase a horse for pleasure.

Now imagine this boy going through this advanced way of defrauding all because of pleasure.
My question is, how was he able to break through the One Time Password (OTP) that is normally sent to the phone number of the ATM card bearer which at times lasts for 5 - 10 to 15 minutes then expires whereas the card bearer wasn't totally aware of it until when he checked and noticed his bank account reduction.

Seriously this act must be very tactical.

Up till this moment the case is still ongoing...

Teenagers why are you all venturing into all listed below:

° Mini-Thefts
° Unnecessary Lies
° Bad Peer Groups
° Wrong Aspiration
Or does it mean you're not being fed properly at home or you're always busy looking at those who are blessed with wealth and therefore have the capacity of affording all they want? Sincerely, it is a bad way of reasoning and it won't take you to anywhere good but misfortunes. In a news past days, Chamath Palihapitiya, Facebook former vice president of user growth said he feels “tremendous guilt” over his work on “tools that are ripping apart the social fabric of how society works” he also said “The short-term, dopamine-driven feedback loops that we have created are destroying how society works. No civil discourse, no cooperation, misinformation, mistruth.”
All he said are the real truths. On this note we define social media as a home, a palace and a connectivity where people come together to share ideas and showcase their lifestyle (way of living).
Thus, this has rendered so many teenagers useless hypnotizingly, it has caused massive arrogance in the society where the teenagers disrespect elders on countless times, it's totally bad.

° Mini-thefts: plenty teenagers have learnt how to thief on a low-key all because they want to be like their role models online, this has lead to Pocket pickings, Internet Scamming, Hitting (stealing) of their parent's Money,

•Pocket picking is a known manual way of stealing by average Nigerians, many teenagers attracts to this because they also want to feel among so they need to pick pockets to gain little monies in pimping their swag. Gosh! These are lower class of teenagers who their parents are unfortunately in abject poverty yet they want to feel amid in their remote vicinity.

• Internet Scamming: Internet scamming is one of the vast ways people cheats both the teenagers and aged. At least if we've not heard of any online scamming strategies, we would have heard of the Yahoo Boys who are trending all around the globe. They disguise to be beautiful ladies communicating with rich men or rather disguise as handsome men communicating with rich business women and female politicians, there they make good relationships with the people they met with online and extort money from them, some even go extreme by opting for black magics to get these people on their palms. All these things are happening due to the over exposure of these teenagers which their parents are carelessly not taking measures.

• Hitting (stealing) of parent's money: Most teenagers have been doomed with this act of excessively sneaking their parents wealth to buy cars, expensive wears (designers) and horses, they look up to those that are over them, those that are struggling earners (hustlers), Politicians entourage and those that live life of illegality either drug dealers or further more.
Truthfully, you can't be like them unless you possess almost everything in their possession and that leads to Bad Peer Groups and Wrong Aspiration.

° Bad Peer Groups: When you're always after being like the higher class you will love to mingle with hoodlums so as to arrogantly attract the community. Teenagers, It is very wrong to associate with hoodlums please, if you do currently, disengage yourself from such because it leads to so many bad things like Cultism, Intake of Alcohols and cigarettes, Armed Robbery, etc. I am sure none of the teenagers would love to be like that.

° Wrong Aspiration: Due to too much Social Media Whores, many teenagers are affected with their mode of dressings and hairstyles, shitty way of haircuts and so many. It is a petty that teenagers are so brainwashed that some wants to be gangsters, rock stars, terrorists, drifters, fashionistas, etc whereas their parents are blindly grooming them to be doctors, nurses, architects, and so on.

Parents (Fathers in specifics), you ought to stop or reduce most of those things from them because it makes them loose interest on meaningful occupations you're aspiring for your teens. Social media does not stop on Facebooks, WhatsApps and Instagrams, it also comprises of their TV sets, radio sets, etc.

Parents i advice you all to look carefully on these teenagers ensure they are rightfully guided and deny them from making unnecessary friends and using irrelevant technology devices.
Everything has it's time and division of psychological thinking needs to be induced on them as everything they do and who they becomes after-time concerns you a lot.

Teenagers i want you all to think on mature terms as you all are the leaders of tomorrow.
Sorry for calling you pre-youths.

Parents i want you to take care of them in due superiority.

Blessings...

they took after their great grand father's and fathers . it's in their DNA
