ABSTRACT
This research work examines the socio-economic factors that contribute to female criminality among undergraduate students at Alex Ekwueme Federal University. The focus of this study was to provide a comprehensive description of female involvement in crimes, including the types of crimes they are most visible in. Additionally, it aimed to analyse the socio-economic attributes of women involved in criminal activities and identify the factors that contribute to their criminal behaviour. This research work utilised the descriptive research method. The study utilises the convenience sampling method to select a total of 250 students who took part in the study. The study findings indicate that the type of upbringing a person had during their childhood can have a significant impact on their behaviour and development in adulthood. It was observed that a majority of the women involved in crime were first-time offenders. Company that influences criminal behaviour is another contributing factor. Peer groups exert a significant impact on individuals. The family in which a person is raised has a significant impact on their life. Many women involved in crime are either in the informal sector or unemployed. The immense strain brought on by financial struggles can drive individuals to engage in criminal behaviour. There is a significant involvement of females in criminal activities.
