FYA, only few millennials in their early 80’s gave birth to Gen Zs. Maybe you wanted to state Generation X who are most parents of Gen Z. Millennials gave birth more to Gen Alpha.

Besides, parenting doesn’t ascribe to any particular generation. It is a shared responsibility between father and mother to nurture their children to be well behaved from childhood. Will you say prophet Eli during Samuel era in the Bible that gave birth to two irresponsible children is Gen Y (millennials) ?


i like that you made a point and back it up, But if out of bible 80 books Eli wayward children are the only example you can cite ... i will give that generation an A

imagine we wan write bible now, do you know how many Eli children we have, infact there wont be space for jesus or david story talkless of solomon

21 yr old?
That's failed parenting

One big problem Gen Z have is their quest to make big money without investing the time and patience required to learn and go through the process. That's where Gen X who are their parents failed

And seeing the fact that many of these Gen Z are already single mothers and fathers makes me wonder what we will see in the next 15yrs

Back to the robbery, I wish them a speedy transition to hell for killing a guy huzzling to put food on the table. This is where jungle justice could have been better.

Sometimes, it may not be the case of failed parenting. Have you not seen children raised by the same parents with the same style and under the same conditions turn out differently?

u pick up 4 able guys at 12 mid night? heading to notorious obalende is a suicide mission.

Then these little boys with zero home training need to have their identity properly exposed. Where are their pictures and videos like we did for Chidinma? or is it because they killed a poor uber driver their identities are hidden? undecided

RIP to the Driver.

I think experienced drivers on UBer/Bolt section on Nairaland should give more advice to newer drivers. That trip had several red flags
1. Late hour ride in the middle of the night
2. Four male passengers (even at any police checkpoint during the ride, police will conduct a thorough search of the car and riders)
3 Destination Obalende ( Alagbole, mushin,oshodi,ikorodu and several places are no go areas at night for ridesharing)
4. Corolla vehicle ( high theft rate and resale value)

Stay safe

Then you tell us naa...

People are condemning these young murderers; rightly blaming it on bad parenting,social media influence,peer pressure,failure of society,etc...
...but you disagree,calling us FOOLS without giving us a better and different perspective...

Won't I be right to conclude that you need help right now?

See how all the comments here are making geralised comments condemning the entire society. Had it been the names are all from a particular zone from the south, the comments would have been something else. Thank goodness crime does not know any tribe. No region has the monopoly of crimes

The report says 2 of the suspects were caught at the scene and handed over to police. You did not see that abi? sad

Maintain this energy when one of your relatives is brutally murdered like this and the suspects are apprehended at the scene.

They have killed an innocent hustling man who's trying to cater for his family.

U'll now take them to prison, their family will engage a lawyer and even get advice from police on how to soften the case.

Maybe the deceased doesn't have people capable of matching the naira rain from the accused family, the murderers will be freed after some years.

The man has died in vain, no thanks to failed parentage.

I'm a Christian, but in these instances, I prefer sharia law, where the accused would be beheaded in the market square immediately.

First ask yourself what are the boys doing with a gun. What is their intentions carrying a gun at midnight? This should be your question instead of coming online to insult people.

This is so sad.

It's crazy that I had a short dream this morning that I was an Uber driver that drove some people to a house, and they were trying to make me drive my car into a compound at night. They said they didn't want their neighbors to see their load, but they looked suspicious. I said no, and they started getting aggressive. That's when I woke up... and then I saw this story on Nairaland.

Uber and bolt drivers should be smart enough not to pick more than one passenger at off peak period to avoid such stories and the passenger nust sit in the front seat. Don't risk your life chasing money.

Those guys should get the capital punishment.

When I became an adult and started taking care of my teenage nephew and nieces was when I really respected my parents. The teenage years is the most difficult age range when raising kids... both for boys and girls.

But they said his father sent him to naija, probably to sort him out him out due to his wrong ways in the US. My point is that with kids over there can you use the rod without the kid making a call to 911 or even informing his teacher at school that y is facing abuse at home, then the parent is arrested. Truth of the matter is that those societies are messed up with all their stupid rules. If one is unfortunate that hs kids mixes with the wrong group at an early age. It is a problem controlling the child.
I met a kid at a secondary school inside a restricted university, his parents sent to naija, understand he was turning to a bad boy, na so them package am to naija. Even holidays when my ward will come home, that boy will remain in school. Note that this was a boy born and breed in the UK talking like oyinbo. Guess what that boy is now in final year of the University proper, a clean cut kid, well streightened out.
As you rightly said 21 age might be too late, maybe his parents should have acted earlier when they saw the signs.

Boarding school is the sure bet for parents who are having issues, raising their children home or abroad.
Some don't even allow their children do secondary education abroad, I remembered a school called Apostolic faith secondary school way back, 75% of the students in the hostels are from Europe.
Parenting abroad is not easy o, children are exposed to a lot of bad influences, especially in that America.
