GENDER DISPARITY IN CRIMINAL BEHAVIOUR IN ADO-EKITI, EKITI STATE, NIGERIA
Abstract
There had been differences in the crimes committed by male and female in various stages, throughout the world. Male criminality became the most significant issue in the literary discussion of crime, which gave female criminality little or no attention. Against this background, this paper looked into disparity in the punishment given to male and female. To achieve this, the samples of 120 respondents were chosen among the inmates, the prison officials, the police and the general public. The findings revealed that preferential treatment only existed in terms of hard labour; that women were not exposed to manual labour as their male counterparts do. Conclusively, equality and fair treatment in all ramifications irrespective of their sex and offence committed were recommended.
