There is poverty and hardship everywhere in the world, however the international news would not report it.

Do you realise some people cannot afford 3 square meals a day in the western world?

m watching football, they will rather go to the pub, buy one pint of beer and watch. They cant even afford cable TV at home.

But we have another definition for wealth as Nigerians as it relates to our culture. We want to show off to the world, we want to build houses (not mortgage), we want to buy amazing cars, we want to live large without debt. If such individuals choose to live in western worlds, there will be clash of cultures and such individuals will look for a way to force his idea of "wealth" to come to fruition - they will most probably go into crime as the last resorts eventually.

Mostly (not at all times), that is what causes cases like this.
Bolded is the simple truth. If you go to 9ja and be low key, people say you did not make it. They will be saying how that person in Sweden or Japan built that storey building or used x of number cars last time he came. He was carrying many fine girls.

Not everyone will decide to disclose all his investments to people or appear lavish in a country with so many people just managing.

In the West, nobody really cares about your wealth or how you live large. That reduces the pressure to keep up with the Joneses.
Yet some 9ja folks in the West cannot recognise the advantage of this. They still want to "chill with the big boys" and go into crime.

Some section of this country are well-known religious terrorists.

Others, who happened to be their next-door neighbors, are violent land grabbers, ethnic cleansing murderers, and commercial kidnappers.

Some community excelled in drug smuggling , dealing in baby-factory-made children, and producing counterfeit goods.

There others who are renowned religious bigots, and poverty-multipliers by uncontrollably giving birth to alms-begging children.

In this country, we also have kidnapping militias-cum-economic sabatouers.

And this region, these ones in the news above represent, are world-class fraudsters and ritual killers.

I don't know why people think they can come to the UK and commit these frauds and get away with it, those days are long gone! Thesedays there are so much devices put in place to detect frauds, And they have your biometric finger prints! Your passport, addresses or driver's licence details.

I see the Capo dei Capi, Abidemi Adegbite, has not even been sentenced yet. cool

Operation Waterspout was a Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary investigation into an Organised Crime Group who were involved in high value commercial fraud. The fraudsters used stolen personal details of existing customers from all over England and Wales to take out new phone contracts and obtain expensive mobile phones and similar items such as Apple Watches and iPads.

Oluwadamilola Bolaji, 32, of Black Eagle Drive in Gravesend, Kent, admitted his part in the fraud conspiracy to the value of £145,000. He has been jailed for six years and three months.
Taofeeq Balogun, 30, of no fixed address in Basingstoke admitted his part in the fraud conspiracy to the value of £25,000. He has been jailed for three years.
Taiwo Agusto, 43, of Osbourne Road in Dartford, Kent admitted his part in the fraud conspiracy to the value of £3,000. He has been jailed for one year and nine months.
Carriba Johnson, 31, of Nelson Square in Southwark, London also admitted her part in the fraud conspiracy to the value of £2,500. She has been given a suspended sentence of 24 months imprisonment.

Abidemi Adegbite, 56, of Bennett Castle Lane in Dagenham, Essex, admitted his part in the fraud conspiracy to the value of £190,000 and is due to appear for sentencing at a later date.

Between the April 2019 and March 2020, as part of a nationwide fraud, Bolaji, Adegbite, Balogun, Agusto and Johnson stole mobile phone customers details, used fake ID and fake documents to impersonate those customers, and visited mobile phone stores to gain expensive mobile phones and other devices. This resulted in a loss of almost £430k for phone companies Vodafone, EE, O2 and the Carphone Warehouse.

Let me interpret your comment for those that are not spiritually carried to decode your spiritual message.


Kanuri tribe of Nigeria are known for Islamic religious terrorism and producing MUSLIM terrorists.


Fulani their next neighbor are known for violently grabbing lands belonging to other tribes in the name of rearing cow abi cattle, and they have now advanced their business into kidnapping for ransom.


The Igbo tribe have made a name for themselves in drug trafficking, creating baby factory to produce babies they sell to people who cannot father a child. They are also good at faking products shocked


Hausas are very known with being religous bigots, if you are not a devout Muslima, they don't regard you as human being, and they can marry plenty wives and manufacture children they cannot take care of like bees, they are mostly good at begging using their children cry


And the Yoruba tribe who are the people in this very news are known for international internet fraud, cyber fraud, identity theft, wire wire fraud and ritual killings.



This is what makes Nigeria a wonderful country, a great country of criminally minded tribes that have mastered different crimes based on their tribe cheesy shocked

Excellent. That's exactly what I meant.

By the way, there are Niger Delta militants, mainly Ijaw people, notorious for oil bunkering

The easiest way to get banned on NL is to say anything against Igbos even if it's true. Most of the Mods are Igbos and Seun has given them too much power to ban others. Your observation is flawed and incorrect.

Anytime you read about fraud syndicate overseas, 98 percent of the people involved are Nigerian and is giving us a bad image. We are genuine hustlers. It’s sad 😔

That's not true. Nigerians are actually the lowest level of fraudsters, even the Indians are x5 more criminal... just that the Nigerians are very crude and largely unintelligent. Very loud too, always casting themselves. Even in public buses you will hear them calling huge sums on the phone, with that our loud voice! You are talking on phone and the whole bus passengers can hear your conversation... no be mumu be that?
