Just own up to it. From internet fraud, love scam, and drug pushing everybody knows they are the area of specialization of the people of the religion of LOVE. Nigeria's image is internationally dented and destroyed by the activities of people from the religion of LOVE. Just own up.
Abdul now use your brain o

E no suppose pain you

When Dubai arrested those financing Boko Haram, who were the culprits doing it for?

Was if for themselves or for Allah?

Last time i checked Boko Haram and all Islamic Terrorists groups do what they do for allah.

Are you aware that Boko Haram is a designated Islamic Terrorist group in Europe, EU, USA, NATO, UN etc amongst other Islamic Terrorists group?

Now can you tell us who is disturbing the world and it's government so much to be designated as threat?

Can you tell us who these threats are acting on behalf of?

As regards the drug traffickers, scammers etc if you aren't dumb i don't see how they do it for the religion of love.

When they succeed they buy cars, bleep oloshos so how does religion of love benefit?

The resident scammer on nairaland called salomirr even said he doesn't believe in god, so how does his scam help religion of love

I am not defending fraud
you're just ignorant
419 was popular after internet

the term "Nigerian prince" is the main stuff that made Nigeria synonymous to fraud and it was by e-mails

Nigerians and fraud are just like, you can take the boy out of the hood but you cannot take the hood out of the boy. They complain about the government for doing fraud in Nigeria, but going to overseas countries, it is the same business.

Just say that you prefer to live by crimes rather than earning a decent living legally.

Isn't religion of LoVe here to inculcate good manners in its followers. G.W Bush invaded iraq and Afghanistan because his Christian God asked him to? Christian majority countries are responsible for the crisis I'm all muslims majority countries, we are seeing the love America/NATO took to Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya among others. Religion of LOVE inspired the crusade and other heinous crimes against humanity.

This is the news of ur brother Bush telling the world about how his Christian God inspired him to kill millions of innocen muslims in iraq and Afghanistan:


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WKt56ztXSK0
Ndi religion of piss George bush was on his own when religion of piss inspired Osama bin laden to enter George bush country and kill his people

George Bush needed to protect his people by taking the war to ndi religion of piss who were carrying out threat

He entered Afghanistan to dislodge ndi religion of piss provocators, he entered Iraq because it was another breeding ground for religion of piss issuing threats

This is been proactive

UN has designated numerous religion of piss group as Terrorist and not one religion of love group is a designated Terrorist group

Mind you this is the same UN all religion of piss countries are a member of and jointly agree religion of piss groups is a cancer to humanity

The crusaders are desendants of the Roman empire that ruled and was in Jerusalem before religion of piss existed

Religion of piss founder who never stepped foot in Jerusalem claimed the land to belong to religion of piss stopping crusaders from jointly sharing it.

Crusaders retaliated by taking the war to religion of piss who had killed their own people and drove them out

You guys should stop the whataboutism, this is a Nigerian forum, so expect news about Nigerian criminals not Russian criminals. Also, Nigerians are top when it comes to Romance scams and BEC scams as these require the least technical knowledge (more of social engineering and deception than actual technical computer skills). The benefits scam pulled off during the pandemic and early this year was heavily dominated by Nigerians because once again, it doesn't require any other skill than having a faulty moral compass.

Tribalism is a weakness. I don't know your tribe but if you believe in change and progress, you wouldn't give place to tribalism. The Igbos are not your problem, your government is your problem. Our leaders get excited when young men like you miss the mark and begin to fight your fellow Nigerians. This is what they want, you are a pawn in their hands

Spot on . Plus practically non existent justice system. No consequences for actions. Being a criminal in naija even gives you more protection.
What a country. We can't all run away. We really need to get it right.
