BUEA YOUTHS AND CYBERCRIME AT THE URGe

          Cybercrime  is a whole network of criminal activities done, using the internet. As wide as the internet spreads, 80% percent of its coverage has little or no security because it appears a different world on its own, without any rulers.  Criminal offences go as far as child trafficking, illicit drug trafficking, spread of pornographic content, email interception, impersonation, cheating, falsification, forgery and fraudulent representation of facts. The ‘Yahoo-Yahoo’ business, formally known as cyber fraud in Cameroon’s cybercrime law, is not a new phenomenon in the country. The illicit business, mostly perpetrated by young men and sometimes women, is an offshoot of the so-called ‘419’ business of the 1980s and 1990s.

Gender stereotypes directly affects individual expression and limits access to opportunities. This mostly begins from the home and branches off to the society- where opportunities, knowledge, and resources are open to one gender and restricted to the other. Fortunately, more people are becoming aware of this menace and the danger it poses to development in society as it constrains choices, and negatively affects people’s ability to participate in, contribute to and benefit from social, political, and economic development.   We can win this fight if we only speak out.
