Can you stop typing trash? Have you already accepted that crime dwells in the east and east alone? Crime, from whatever context, is wrong and should be condemned but it's sheer stupidity to try to promote the assumption that it is peculiar to the east because more than a double of whatever happens there are happening in yoruba land and other places in Nigeria. You people should stop this madness.

I honestly don't care where else crime dwells for now. I would prefer to focus on removing the log from my eyes first. Any solid comparison in my post didn't leave the east so I guess you're replying the wrong comment.
Like I said, I honestly don't care where else crime dwells for now.

My brother. It's like you think all these thunders that are firing people upandan are wearing sunshades on a vacation somewhere abi?
Try this nonsense again

I live in Lagos and I used to think this cyberfraud was a city thing, as many kids are easily adopting it as a culture all around.

But the last time I went home, I wept for how deeply enmeshed the youth are in cyberfraud. It was seen as an alternative should honest work fail to yield easy riches.
Even those who can't spell the name of the phone they operate are also into cybercrime..or so they claim.
Despite the number of honest elders that go before them, a depressing number of the youths have chosen to tow another path.
I refer back to my service year, where we battled to 'force' kids to abandon their means of 'livelihood' and attend secondary school. When some of them happened to come into the corpers' lodge while we were lamenting the job insecurity ahead. One of the visiting student asked what the aim was then, if they will get all these education and can't be comfortable from it.
On one of my visit home yesteryears, a suspected yahoo kid bought a new car, brought it to his family compound with two 'cartons' of beer and some interesting edibles to ask that elders bless his car and pray over him. The prayer and feasting that occured there and then, not one thought was raised over the source.
Religion plays a crucial role in how accepted a person is in Igboland. How many churches outrightly turn down and condemn whomever is well-known to be involved in such fraudulent dealings? Very few, if they are to succeed, as the church is somewhat political in dealings as well.

Until these key elements retrace their steps, it's going to be a terrible outing for us from the east. For as long as there is a comforting shoulder still at home for them to cry on, condemnation will have little or no effect.

Aiish.
Imagine Rauf and promises again.
Fire Service are really in trouble now.

Like they should use some of the proceeds from the fraud to book flight to US right now or warris this FG saying?

Meanwhile why is PDP opening in a new browser?

Lol
FG should keep out of this family matter abeg.
Let them go and settle at home.
All the propaganda B.S.

Unpatriotic Nigerian

AnanseK:
What of the rape ( aggravated) physical and sexual assault, is that not a crime. Must there be a cutlass?

It is a crime. But I was not talking about the crime. I was talking about the criminal.

The cutlass at the scene is enough to make him a suspect.
But not enough to make him the criminal.

R.I.P to the dead.

That's your inferiority complex speaking.

This is another opportunity to correct the mistakes we did with Sowore.

I like the fact that you've embraced your destiny to follow your family footsteps.

Enjoy your passion, then. However, I believe there are more constructive ways to use your time this morning. Those boys whose names are on that list probably didn't use their time judiciously. Have a nice life.

Hotfreeze:
Coming from someone who would probably still die in a foreign prison, you're ignored.

Good of you to use 'probably'. The illiteracy claim was in the fact that you used 'all' the first time. You're learning.

stag:
Bro, how can your brother be in a contract job but fixed two of his in-laws in ‘well-paying’ Federal Government jobs with job security while he worked in a place without job security?

See brother.

Brother wey

Including the bra pictures again is just lame

Zoharariel:
Maybe, you're the blackmailer.

Nah. I find it fishy myself. How these people want to trend these days.

Perhaps, that's why it's easy for fraudulent people to be brought to book in advanced countries. They could simply tap into these databases for recogition patterns.
Imagine such measures in place in Nigeria. All these force men populating the streets to milk out of the small profits from hustlers' pockets would have been tracking viable leads instead and bring these alarming rate of cyber-robbers, terrorists and other criminals to book.

Godwin2am:
FISH THEM OUT! THEY ALL HAVE A REPRESENTATIVE HERE IN NIGERIA. EFCC SHOULD BE UP THEIR GAME TO CURDLE THIS SYNDICATE . THIS SHAME IS NOT GOING AWAY SOON

EFCC? Bro, that's been too hopeful. They can't even redflag emails or something. It all has to be whistle blowing or suspecting one's hairstyle or age or dressing.

LoJ:
What is the cause of this tendency to scam among Nigerians.

If I had not known great Nigerian people, in the like of sarassin or Mizmycoli, or happypagan I would have run away from anything related to Nigeria for life.

90% of all Nigerians I later got in touch with, tried to scam me one way or the other. A few successfully did. Others failed. Most were totally dishonest.

What is the cause of this. I went from Being the greatest supporter of the Nigerian culture, to a disillusioned and disenchanted observer of the country.

Poverty can't be the only reason, as most subsaharian countries are even doing worse than Nigeria.

Thank god for the few men of integrity left in that otherwise great country. I like the Nigerian culture a lot, but I fear the people equally much.

I'ld want to believe that the problem stems from being disillusioned and misinformed at youth.
That just has to be it. Parents, guardians and elders have a role to play in that. The government has a role to play in that. Even our religious bodies have their roles to play in that. When all these stakeholders decided to focus on selfish interest, we arrived where we are now.

So, you were blessed with the privilege to come to another country to better yourself, but instead you continued your miscreant lives abroad disgracing actual hardworking Nigerians. These people really think the rest of the world operates as lawless as Nigeria. People please open your eyes and understand how effective the systems in other nations are. America is not a country that turns a blind eye on crime unlike our own, where people can commit crime with impunity.

America has already put immigration restrictions on Nigeria. There is no more American visa lottery for Nigerians as we speak. This was implemented in the US starting last year due to the number of Nigerians who abuse and cheat their immigration system. We are a crime-ridden shit.hole country and most of us only know how to flee from our problems or pray for miracles instead of actually addressing them. If the youths are as motivated and organized about a true revolution as they are with Big Brother, we might start to shake things around.

Man, what troubles me more is that it is gradually being streamlined to be an Igbo thing, and it ends up causing issues for all Nigerians.
It is just unfortunate that the US do not recognize that majority of them are from a specific tribe. It would have been good to limit the restrictions to them, so that this nonsense can be tackled as an indigenous problem back home.
This is just too pathetic.
