In Nigeria today, almost every young and successful male citizen is considered a Yahoo boy. The media and law enforcement agencies are not helping matters as they kept promoting contents that related to fraud/Yahoo.
The fact remains that Nigeria has an estimated population of about two hundred million (200,000,000) people. The likely number of citizens involved in fraud or other illegal businesses may be less than 4% (excluding politician, they are thieves by default). If you compare this statistics with the statistics obtained from China or United States of America, you will know that fraud in Nigeria is overhyped.

Overhyping of fraud does not reduce fraud instead it encourages it. The young generation thinks Quick wealth/Money Ritual /Fraud/Yahoo is something special and craves to join the clique…

It is important to let the media know that we do variety of things to make wealth… not just fraud…
