What are you waiting for

Angelfrost:
Great job...!

But, I'm quite dissatisfied.

Look at that amount of cash... How are banks still authorising such shocking cash withdrawals even in the face of rising insecurity?

Even businesses and commercial deals hardly insist on cash payments.

Even during cash scarcity, kidnappers still manage to get paid in cash... Some even receive wire transfers that no one tracks or follows up with.


I honestly believe most Nigerian sectors encourage crimes and criminality in this nation.

TechBaron:
Lol

Not encouraging crime.. These ones are Local criminals... Dem no dey ever smart..

Change those funds into hard currency or crypto.
Get burner phones and split ways.
Avoid travelling by road out of the country, use the waterways.
Meet at the rendezvous somewhere in Accra... Get new passports, move upwards Ivory Coast, then Morocco.. Then Europe...

Wait, how much was the ransom again?
Naaaaaaaaah.. Not worth the stress...!

Just be a good boy and avoid all this drama!

The dangerous aspect of this violent crime is that the culprits will soon be released into the same society.
Remember the young guy that killed and bagged his girlfriend in nylon bags? He is out of the country currently.
I no longer fight crime I. This Nigeria. All I do is to protect my self and stay out of problems

Even businesses and commercial deals hardly insist on cash payments. It may be daily withdraw in many days or withdrawal from POS , or an arrange cash collections from market traders who sell mostly in cash , and mind you Bankers also are complicit and bend rules towards some customers

Even during cash scarcity, kidnappers still manage to get paid in cash... Some even receive wire transfers that no one tracks or follows up with.
