They have arrested Innocent Citizens and calling them Internet Fraudsters meanwhile the main yahoo men and women are walking freely everyday. Even the so called Dizeani that they made us believe she's a criminal automatically is now a Saint. The so called EFCC withdraw the case leveled against her.

Naija Una mumu never do.
Am still wondering why these boys never start to they retaliate or even carry arms against these Red Empro idiots. They're good for nothing officers, shielding the real fraudsters and arresting innocent citizens. Na thunder go fire Una

Internet fraudsters and apple phones are 5&6

Upon arrest, Ahunwan the prime suspect, confessed that he recruited the team, saying they were paying back Europeans for stealing from their forefathers

Sorry to ask, which money did they collect from your forefathers ?
Always responsible for what you're charged for, and not making lame excuse
Awon forefathers Advocates grin




I choosed a devil's path and will surely tell the truth if being caught, instead of hiding on lies
I'm a bad man with a good heart

Is this good news or bad news?
That 7 students sat together, not to read but to commit crime makes it bad news.
That they were caught made it good news.
What is my point? I dont know too, but i know this is news.
