Reduction of Anti-Social Activities Initiatives on Facilitation of Social Justice in Nigeria. A Critical Literature Review

Abstract

Purpose: Antisocial behavior is a matter of major public concern, especially in neighborhoods perceived to have poor quality of life and in which incidents of more serious crime are likely to occur. The overall objective of this study was to examine reduction of anti-social activities initiatives on facilitation of social justice in Nigeria. A critical literature review Methodology: The paper used a desk study review methodology where relevant empirical literature was reviewed to identify main themes and to extract knowledge gaps. Findings: The study concluded that most of the respondents disagreed that the government has campaigned against illicit alcohol consumption. Most of the respondents also disagreed that the county government ensures that no alcohol drinking places are located near schools or within residential areas. The study also disagreed that the county government offers guidance to citizens on handling and management of anger. Unique Contribution to Theory, Policy and Practice: This study recommended that the government of Nigeria should give its members the opportunity to report crime and work with the members to reduce the criminal cases that take place in the country as well as deal with the illegal business that take place within the country regions.
