Abstract

This study is one the first attempts that critically discussed; Restive Youth and the Challenges of Oil Theft in the Niger Delta Region of Nigeria. It relied on secondary data to establish the links between youth restiveness and the challenges of oil theft in the region of Niger Delta. Collier’s theory of Greed (2001), Merton Social Strain theory (1968), and Atkinson and Atkinson (1975) theory of Frustration, form the theoretical background to this research.
