@ Poster

It is no secret that some Nigerians are curropt . . . . . but it cant be compared to that of Americans.
If you doubt my assertion, then log in to the website of your US District Attorney's Office and see things for yourself . . you will be amazed to see that these whites are being convicted of millions of dollars daily . .Unfortunalely, they wont hesitate to air that of Nigerians culprits adnauseam.

@ poster "I'd have preferred Nigerians were terrorists than fraudsters."

Dont be stupid. Go to CNN and find out about Iraq or Afganistan who are known for terrorism,find out the conditions their citizens (home and abroad) live under, then come back and say something sensible.

UPDATES ON THE THIEVES

http://www.fbi.gov/wanted/fugitives/cyber/onwuhara_te.htm

AN INTERVIEW WITH THE THEIVES FATHER ALHAJI BANJOKO

Many Nigerians in Minnesota have started what appears to be personal campaigns against some of the alleged credit card thieves currently being detained at Ramsey county jail, Saint Paul, Minnesota, USA, as well as their cronies, by circulating images and accounts of the activities of the alleged members of the credit card theft-ring on social networking sites like Facebook and Youtube in a calculated move to embarrass the families of the accused.
Investigations conducted by African-online revealed that majority of Nigerians in Minnesota who were angry by the reference being made by the local news media in the state that some of the alleged credit cards thieves were highly respected leaders of the Nigerian community in the state have taken it upon themselves to expose the gang members and their cronies in the state.
First to throw the salvo is the President of the Minnesota Institute of Nigerian Development (MIND) Dr. Richard Oni who in a press release to the media houses in the state declared that the activities of the arrested Nigerian criminals did not in any way represent those of the thousands of other Nigerians who thrived daily to contribute to the well-being of their communities here in the United State.
"These criminal elements are not leaders in our community but an unrecognized and shady group that operated outside the purview of the true leaders of our community. They do not represent us and do not in any way exemplify the activities of our community" the statement read in part.
An un-identified Nigerian who goes under the name of "Cnnbrooklynpark" has posted the photographs of many alleged gang members on the facebook as well as the video containing one of the suspects, Oyetoyin Atobatele test driving a 2007 Mercedes-Benz CLS 550 which is conservatively valued at $57,000.
Another Nigerian (name withheld) told African-online that the video containing the alleged leader of the gang while spraying Dollars on a Nigerian Juju Musician, Yinka Ayefele would soon be posted on Youtube for the world to see. The video which African-online obtained one of its copies was recorded last year when the Juju musician performed in the state.

Family fury:

Meanwhile, some family and friends of the alleged suspects are now venting their angers over the release of the photographs of some of the prime suspects to the Nigerian news media.
African-online's reporter got the bashing from a person who claimed to be the father of Abiodun and Olayemi Banjoko last Thursday when an attempt was made to hear the side of the story of one of the two brothers who posted bail for $45,000 last week.
The man who claimed to be Ahaji Banjoko threatened to sue this reporter for sending the stories of the credit card fraud to Nigerian newspapers for publication.
Below is the interview which was conducted in Yoruba (a Nigerian native language) with Alhaji Banjoko, father of two of the alleged suspects. Excerpt:
Alhaji Banjoko: Is this the journalist, eh, are you, (in-audible)
Africa-online : May I know who is calling, please?
Alhaji Banjoko: You're a Yoruba boy, yes, I'll talk to you in Yoruba language, You know,  you these boys that just finished from journalism schools and think you can embarrass people any how.
Africa-online : Sir, I'm sorry you need to identify yourself if we are going to continue this conversation. You called my phone, you need to identify yourself, (cut)
Alhaji Banjoko: I am the father of the two boys you have been writing nonsense about! You think you can embarrass my children. (Now raising his voice) I will sue you if you ever call or embarrass them again! You sent their stories to Lagos, I will sue you, because you just finished journalism school you think, (cut in)
Africa-online: Sir, with due respect sir, I don't really think you need to announce to me if you are going to sue me for a story I wrote about your children, this is a free world sir. The story I wrote were obtained from the public records and I don't think I embarrass anybody by publishing what is in public record, (interrupting)
Alhaji Banjoko: (Raising his voice) Eh!, I have children who are lawyers and doctors, I worked for a ministry in Lagos for more than 20 years and I am a graduate of the University of Minnesota. You think small boy like you who just finished journalism school can embarrass me?
Africa-Online: Sir, this is not about you or your achievements,  perhaps you can use this opportunity to set the record straight on why your children were arrested alongside others.
Alhaji Banjoko; I am not going to talk to you again about anything, ? I'm warning you now! stop embarrassing my children.
African-online: I do no intend to embarrass anybody sir,
Alhaji Banjoko: Stop talking to me, you know the real culprits and you didn't put them in the news. Stop putting my children in the news leave them alone!
Africa-online: Sir, I did not put your children in the news, they are the one that put themselves in the news, I think rather than putting the blame on me, you should be telling the whole world your children's roles in this case.
Alhaji Banjoko: They were roped in , I am mad at you, I think, I should not talk to you again, you are just wasting my time (he hung up the line)

Interpol involvement

In another development, Africa-online gathered that the International Police (Interpol) may have been alerted to affect the arrest of the alleged leader of the gang, Bashiru Adelumola Fowoshere a dual citizen of US and Nigeria who is being wanted in connection with the crime.
Africa-online scooped from a source closed to the gang that Mr Fowoshere might have actually fled Nigeria to Dubai, United Arab Emirate because of the fear that the Economic and Financial Crime Commission (EFCC) of Nigeria might turn him in to the United States Federal Investigation Bureau (FBI).
An unconfirmed report stated that one of the containers shipped to Nigeria by leader of the gang had been intercepted by the Nigerian authority after a tip off from their US counterparts.
The shipping agents (name withheld) used by the leader of the gang to ship some of the assorted cars to Nigeria was said to have been interrogated by the US police about five months ago. The shipping agent who is also in Nigeria is said to have fled the country before the recent clamp down on the suspects.

LMWKMD Alhaji Banjoko must be a fool. You are truly following up this case. Why is the father doing this?. Fighting the media is one big mistake any sensible person will do especially when you look guilty. It was like Buhari's case and their attempt to buy up every copy of Tell magazine that reported the forged certificate thingy. They bought all in Abuja and Tell thanked them for their business and made sure they roll new ones[same edition] for next day. grin grin grin

These people arrested are real nigerians. I know this because i am a nigerian and live in minnesota.
So for those of you who want to believe the American government is just calling them nigerians keep dreaming.
They are nigerians and all nigerians living in minneapolis know them.
They have been doing it for a long time and everyone knew they were into credit card fraud.
