Yahoo’ Boys Have Become Role Models, Diezani Laments by Omooba77: 9:19pm On Aug 09, 2020 |
A former Minister of Petroleum Resources, Diezani Alison-Madueke, says societal values have disintegrated to the extent that online fraudsters otherwise known as ‘Yahoo boys’ have become role models in Nigerian society. Diezani said this while delivering a lecture at a virtual event which was also attended by her former boss, ex-President Goodluck Jonathan, on Friday. Speaking at the event organised by the Ijaw National Development Group on Friday, Diezani stressed the need for mentorship of Ijaw youths. The videos were posted on Twitter by blogger, Jackson Ude, who is also the publisher of Point Blank News.

These are the ones that reinforce negative societal norms and values. “This is a travesty of an unfolding tragedy for us. Why have I spent time talking about fatherless homes and the impact it has on our children? The truth of the matter is that an irresponsible boy tends to become an irresponsible man and it is therefore a vicious cycle. If you plant yam, you cannot harvest plantain.” Diezani said there are no shortcuts to progressing in life, adding that only hard work could guarantee success. The former minister added, “There are no shortcuts to working your way up the ladder of life. Progressing in life, in work and relationships – marital or otherwise – is always dependent on consistent effort and hard work. “As we create more responsible young men, we will generate more responsible fathers which will in turn engender a more sustainable society and build a greater nation of successful Ijaw men and women.” Diezani said societal values had collapsed mainly because of weak family bonds caused by broken homes. She said in some instances, children raised by single parents do well in life but it should not be the norm that children should be brought up by single parents. Diezani thanked her former boss, ex-President Goodluck Jonathan, for empowering women during his tenure. The former minister, who is being investigated by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, for alleged fraud running into billions of dollars has been living in the United Kingdom since 2015. She was reportedly appointed as a Commissioner for Trade and Investment by Prime Minister Roosevelt Skerrit of the Commonwealth of Dominica and handed a diplomatic passport which has helped her to evade prosecution despite being in London for over four years. https://punchng.com/yahoo-boys-have-become-role-models-diezani-laments/?amp=1 1 Like 1 Share |

It is indeed very interesting to read that Nigeria's most prolific embezzler of petroleum revenue, Mrs. Frog Eye Madueke, feels confident enough to issue public statements from her hideout in London, where she remains a fugitive from justice. Go back to face justice in Nigeria, Mrs. Frog Eye, and in the meantime kindly shut the phuck up and concentrate on hiding away in London, like the escaped criminal that you are. 8 Likes 1 Share |

When the suffering is enough, all of you will drop this nonsense tribal and political interests and fight your oppressors who incidentally do not use tribe or religion to discriminate among themselves.

What's the difference between the so called yahoo guys and yourself, madam. I can't have you as a role model likewise the yahoo guys. No wonder the bible says, " judge not that you also may not be judged" The country you guys rubbished is what is producing the high numbers of yahoo guys. I know that there is always a curse that follows people who cause others to do bad stuffs. |

Isn’t she a yahoo+ Grandmaster and role model too? She’s obviously being positioned for a come back to government in Nigeria just like others that abound all around the corridors of this and past governments. SMH. Nigeria- where thieves and criminals hold sway, are the policy makers, and the leaders of the government, and political parties. What a sad state of affairs... Sighs! 1 Like 1 Share |
