All this young boys that have millions in their accounts, need to know they need to have a lawyer.

Una go get money, to dey pay lawyer wey go dey defend Una for issues like this become problem.

I sha hope say dem go get their money back

Realtors have lawyers. I’m wondering why it took them this long to cry out? If they are really realtors it shouldn’t be hard to present ur case in the right quarters and get justice.

This is eye-opening and a good reminder to always store your bitcoin in a cold wallet. Hopefully they are able to trace the wallet it was sent to but it may be a little too late.

Please.... What is cold wallet. Because I no trust these useless police people. Ohhh

This story has weakened me.... Someone asked in another thread if we think it's possible to see the Nigeria of out dream in our lifetime..... I doubt that possibility.

Trust any Nigerian policemen, at your own Peril.

For those abusing #EndSARS Protesters, for Governor Sanwo Olu and other ones like Lying Mohammed, Buhari, IGP, etc
You see why you can bet that #EndSARS 2.0 will be worse and better cordinated and well prepared to meet the Violence you gave to Protesters?


The Lawyer should Petition the IGP first, if he does not act then the case deserves to be taken to court for an order of Mandamus, compelling the IGP to investigate the allegation

"Working boys" Should always have a side hustle even if they don't take it seriously. What would it cost to snap a few houses and post them online for sale or even short-let? Maybe actually rent out a few properties a month and save the clients number as "client this or that" and If situations like this arises, they have proof to show they work as realtors.

Is like you glance through the story passage... kindly go read the story again.

Na wa oooo, some people has 22m or more in their account and don't know AIG in this country or go out with escort in this present Nigeria we are today. I pity some people, its better you go Dubai enjoying your money or live a low-key life with nonsense dressing (not swag thing) and seinna bus to disguise. Otherwise you will just die untimely in this country

Every fresh dude must have a lawyer on speed dial these days and no be anyhow lawyer o, na lawyer wey get mouth

See how they killed that woman's son that time everyone was feeling sorry for her...the women on the force are way more heartess and evil than the men, they lie, kill and steal without remorse since they are always trying to prove themselves to their equally evil & useless male colleagues. Forgetting that human beings will always reap whatever they sow, it's an immutable spiritual law...you cannot plant cassava and reap cocoyam.

Everyone's deeds will seek them out and eventually manifest in their lives, the more obvious ad quick when innocent blood is shed

Lol.. be like you don jam woman fr force b4.. mke we just dey pray sey make God guide our waka..
Imagine a female coaty telling her male colleagues to torture person cos he too fine..quoting female officer " see as this one fine na dem go dey use girls up and down,na dem dey quiet,dey fine but dey do evil well well mke una torture am i swear hin go confess.." unquote..

Legally earned monies have trails... for you to have earned that sum of funds legally, along the ladder, you must have met friends, colleagues, business associates, police officers, army, business persons, family that would stand for you legit..

Fraud monies have no attachments or trails,it just hits you.. friends and colleagues cant come to the station because they may be ropped in.
Not necessary at all. As a freelancer editor, except for the bank statement showing steady inflow from my "company name", I no get any business associates or lawyers. Same with most remote workers.

One woman police officer narrated how his son was killed by army officers hmmm....it could be a curse on the woman to know such sorrow.... Nigeria police children should always pray or a prayer warrior and try to be a good person in the society bcoz the curse and spiritual curse dealing with them through the attrocity being committed by their parents can never be erased by any pastor or babalawo as nature will surely strike. In fact, the work no interest me with their behavior

what's cold wallet?
Your cryptocurrency is not stored on an exchange but on a hard wallet where you control your own key, so the stupid police officers will not see a crypto app on their phone in the first place to know they have bitcoins.

And if you're been swindled of ur Crypto by the cop you can't even take the case to court cause Nigeria law dey always get two interpretation dey might tell you Crypto was ban because of kidnapper have started using it to pay for Ransom...

so therefore the judge might tell you they've right to take your coin from you....

Well.. free lancers working for foreigners have trails of payments and working up N22m sitting balance as a free lancer, you are very well grounded affiliated with various organizations and must have trusted mentors who can step up. currency exchange would have had other exchangers flood the station with calls even from Abuja and police headquarters.. legit monies have trails. Fraud has made N22m look like change, earning it legally is a lifetime for majority.
in the presence of police men that know you have such amount, you dey call witness lol. The dead don't call witnesses.

No need to be forming big boy with your iPhone12 and 13 police sees all iPhone users as criminal why not buy small android phone and download only Facebook and WhatsApp you don’t use often. What will you be doing with bitcoin wallet worth 22million walking around?
