Don't just know why things brought to Nigeria with good intentions are destroyed with wickedness...

The other story I heard from Nigeria info was about a lady called Chioma. She boarded the vehicle from lekki or so, she told the driver that she doesn't have cash on her that she was gonna do transfer, the driver innocently agreed not knowing Chiomas intention.

When they got to Yaba she feign that the network was bad, the driver still told her to go and try to send the money when the network is good. Few weeks after she has been mocking the driver, calling him mumu whenever he calls her...

Why are some people like this?

Another driver called to report that a driver was killed at Oshodi too.

Who caused this nation with wicked people self...

I'm sure other countries have their own crimes. One common in America is insurance fraud. Another is credit card fraud.

Why are Nigerians not trust worthy? This is the reason why we are treated badly when abroad. We have dubious mind, imagine an American company that employed Nigerians, suddenly stopped and replaced almost all Nigerians with Ghanaians why? Just because of our dubious way of life.

The driver can track her down with her phone number and she will turn out to be the real mumu after she is jailed.
