Hmm. So, owning a laptop now means being a yahoo boy?

I'm pretty sure 50% of those boys are innocent. Their only crime is owning a laptop in a Backward Country like Nigeria.

The other day, they arrested a fiverr freelancer in Benue and tagged him a yahoo boy. Seriously, this is getting out of hand.

After damaging the person's image on the media? Will they pay for damages?

Kudos to the EFCC.

Nigeria needs to amend its laws to melt out stiffer penalties for cybercrime.

There is no justification for crime.

You need to stop blaming people for your ban, you are picking up your friends bad habits. Aaronbee7 don't have to report you. The mods are watching and if they see inappropriate behavior they will ban you on their own.

thanks for this clarification dear. I'm impressed to know that Nairaland mods take note of every post/comments without having to call their attention

Yes I Know That Don't Worry, Actually This's My First Time Getting Banned.

Sorry what happen to then aftermath they released? This reckless arrest must stop these guys maybe turn to another thing once they released. This is a wakeup call for yoruba leaders.

rusher14:
All of them get the same supplier of slippers?

Lol, that's the type we wear in Ogun state

If FG can give Amnesty to Bokoharam, Militants and looters Yahoo boys should not be exceptional. If you quote me thunder is awaiting you

rusher14:


Since they started clamping down on them have you been hearing of ritual killings or pant stealing anymore?

will arresting them solve the unemployment in nigeria? This is not the best way to solve the problem of nigerian youth.

ornicus:
Someone needs to urgently amend these laws to give years.all this 6 month jail term is nothing

Go and change it na. It baffles me when people cry for politicians and feel happy when a hungry boy is been paraded.

This is really my concern. We're in an internet age. A lot of smart people, myself included, work online from home, selling our skills to the people that need them all over the place the world. Very soon I will be looking to employ someone to assist me since I'm getting plenty requests these days.

EFCC must be sure someone has really committed a crime before arresting the person. Owing a laptop and working from home doesn't make one an internet criminal.

That post of that screenshot was edited. The truth is still on that thread because once her original post has been quoted/copied she can't change it.

We should give all of them awards abi?

I hope so. I definitely hope so because this is Nigeria!

After parading you in public? That's crude.

i bet you at least one of them is a nairaland member!!!!

Better make plans and leave this country. Those EFCC guys are mostly illiterates, they do not know fiverr. Neither do they know payoneer. To them, once you have a laptop, you are a yahoo boy.

You will not believe that the Benue guy they arrested, they wrote it boldly that he was using fiverr and payoneer. So, that was a crime to them.

Ok, thanks for this info.

The 3rd guy in blue shirt (last pic frm left to right), what did he held in his left hand? Dane gun, sword, walking stick?? I

Who noticed that all these Yahoo boys always dress similar?

seems efcc are doing competition over the arrest of yahoo boys. 27 arrest at osogbo as well. it is well.

he is not a hungry boy. he is a common criminal, a riffraff who steals peoples hard earned money and blows it on frivolities.

Only one Igbo among all.

Well the hustle is getting realer by the day

Kenneth10110:
EFCC focus on yahoo boys living the tyrants to steal the nations wealth. But yahoo boys be like 'bring back our Sars'

If u have be denied visa or something good because of the havoc this Yahoo boys have caused us u wil wish them death
