| dc.description | The traditional linkage of defective educational acquisition and the propensity to engage in antisocial behaviours has been accentuated in criminological theory. However, current development in ICT environment preferred for spacelessness, timelessness with its unchanging requirement for ingenuity in the use and mastery of e-interaction has consistently queried the veracity of defective education and crime participation. A survey on cyber fraud conducted in Nigeria found out that the acquisition of requisite education is central to technology-driven crime participation and guarantees continual survival and career longevity in crime business. Consequently, this article analyses the necessity of educational acquisition for crime participation and further advocated for a paradigm shift to accommodate the changing trends in the education-crime symbiotic relationship in the ICT age. This is germane to criminology of ICT in capturing and mitigating the victimization that are contactable through participation in e-relationship. | |
