Abeg, make una stop all this nonsense propaganda.Oyibo people dey read these threads too.

@just wise

Your username does not befit you.The real people who steal in this country, are they jobless?How do human beings like you reason sef?You see a small thief and you act as if Satan has finally been caught.You see a big thief and you worship him like a god.

Tell me something. . .judge from these two examples and tell me who is worse (if your brain can think that far). . .

(1)The man who steals from another man so he can feed himself.
(2)The man who steals from the entire nation so he can feed myself and his unborn 22nd and 23rd generation.

Nigerians sicken me daily.See how they jump on the bandwagon so easily.There is a thread in the crime section about a German woman who duped a Nigerian of billions of naira.I dont see the likes of you and Thor there condemning the act.It's to come here and run down your fellow Africans una sabi.

Shallow minded nitwits!

I have come across my fools in my life but honestly u top the list.
U are morally dead and need to get your head sorted.

Those two Nigerians were involved in  £20m global credit card con and u call that small thief? Are u out of your bleeding mind?
Re: Two Nigerians Jailed Over £20 Million Credit Card Scam! by harakiri(m): 2:09pm On Jan 15, 2010
What is 20 million pounds compared to what Obasanjo, IBB,Abacha,Bode George and an endless list of "leaders" have looted from this country in the past 40-50 years? Even Iyabo Obasanjo looted so much that she can afford to have properties in banana island (this is an area in lagos where land is sold for billions of naira. . .you can't even get a plot there for N500 million).Even little Muttalad lives in a RENTED apartment where the annual payment is 4 million pounds! ! ! Imagine that. . .4 millions pounds per year as rent and you are here talking as if it was Satan himself that was arrested.

Useless cowardly hypocrites.When it comes to petty thieves, their voices will be the loudest (as if they don't have skeletons in their own cupboards).When they see the great almighty thieves who drain the life blood of this country, they prostrate on the ground in subservience.Rubbish! ! ! This is why our country CAN NEVER progress.The unwritten law is :

Kill the small thief and crown the big thief as king! ! !

And we keep wondering why Nigeria is like this.Useless people!

Absolutely no reason to stay dumb in dis internet age. Seek instead of acting like u know.

@harakiri

Do u know what? Its very important that we Nigerians stop pple like u B4 u become [b]Abacha[/b]s, its very clear that crime is part of u and u have all sorts of stup.id excuses to defend it.

But onething is clear, all the nonsense u copied and pasted above will not set u free when u are caught.

@justwise

You are as dumb as two rocks put on top of each other (you even sound like Thor himself).I am NOT saying that internet crime/drug peddling amongst other vices is a good thing.NO! ! ! Far from it.It's bad and i condemn it but coming on here to post s**t about our country does not help anything.It only adds to the stigma that Nigerians suffer from both home and overseas.Do you think it's only Nigerians that read these threads? There are so many South Africans,Zimbabweans, Ghanaians,Togolese, Egyptians, Asians,Americans,Britons,Canadians (etc) that are members of nairaland.Some of them have spouses/relations that are Nigerians.Some are just curious about Nigeria and you can't Google anything juicy story about Nigeria without nairaland showing up.It's what we say about ourselves here that they will use to judge us after all, we have already condemned ourselves so why don't they add insult upon injury.There is an adage that goes thus :

If you treat your calabash like it means nothing to you, your neighbors will end up kicking it about.

That being said, Nigerians are NOT the only ones involved in cyber fraud and drug peddling.Russia and Ukraine rank top on the list but you will never see CNN or BBC talking trash on air.THEY DARE NOT! ! ! All this rubbish started when Ribadu took it upon himself to go on air to run us down (as if it wasn't bad enough for Nigerians before).All the viagra and porn spam emails you get in your inbox are chiefly from Russians/Ukrainians and it's loaded with trojans that target your credit card/banking details.Who talks about this?Nobody.The govt is dealing with issue from within same way ours is dealing with ours via EFCC and NPF.Coming on here to bash your own people is arrant nonsense.It will do no good.Talk about washing your dirty linen for the public.Some people will come here,go to the business section and want to do genuince business but after reading all the senseless-dumb-retarded-grey matter deficient-kindergarten posts like these, they are bound to have a change of heart.So tell me, what is the point of these posts?Does it curb illegal acts?No. . .Does it inform the public of anything new?No. . .everybody already knows so wetin u dey talk again?

Useless yeye hypocrites.

This backwards manner of thinking amongst my people dey tire me sometimes.If dem no get wetin to talk, dem go just find one negative rubbish add put.

I'm not a Russian or Ukrainian, i'm 110% Nigerian, travel with Nigerian passport, so my first concern is Nigeria.

U keep talking rubbish, for the fact that other countries are involved in the same crime as Nigeria DOES NOT MAKE IT RIGHT!! Get that? Stop using that as an excuse.
