They are intentionally doing these as a response to the fact that the president is being referred to as a drug baron. This is their response to it.. This is what this all about. They want to skew the narratives to make it look like the south-easterners are all progressing in life because of drugs. This is a well organised, well planned media effort by the ethnic supremacists in the southwest to tarnish the image of the south Easterners. There is no way Seun is not aware. If you doubt me, start a similar series on the involvement of south westerners on any crime.

Your post is laced with deliberately fabricated disinformation and is highly defamatory against the OP and the Super Moderators. First off, is the story about this arrest TRUE or NOT? It should be totally condemned instead of you deflecting and finding fault. It's important these stories get to the front page so that people can be aware and DESIST from these heinous crimes which are tarnishing the image of innocent Nigerians from other ethnic groups.

The stories and news of the relentless drug trafficking and other heinous crimes around the world (Thailand, China, Ghana, Cambodia Vietnam, South Africa, Kenya, etc) perpetrated by some of these bad elements from the South East has been going on for decades and past Nigerian Goverments too are to blame for NOT enforcing the capital punishments with executions of drug traffickers like General Buhari did when he was the Military Head-of-State in the early 1980s. I absolutely propose that capital punishments be enforced by the Indians and every country around the world.

I remember that the Singaporeans executed a teenager named Tochi from the South East for trafficking in drugs despite the FACT that Nigeria appealed to them to be lenient. Singapore, Indonesia and China, etc, do NOT take nonsense when it comes to drug trafficking. That Tochi's story can still be read online.

Once it's fraud, it's 80% it will be my Western brothers.

Your idea of a temporary blanket ban on all Nigerians isn't the wise thing to do. Instead, the Indians should punish via death sentences ALL those doing these heinous crimes of advanced fee fraud and drug trafficking based on what part of Nigeria (or the world) they come from which the Indians and other Asian intelligence agencies already know or have known from their crime database for decades. The Indian business community in Nigeria who have invested heavily in manufacturing in Nigeria will NOT even agree to that your suggestion so as NOT to damage business and diplomatic ties.

Just to remind you, the Seychelles Government already placed a flight ban on Nigerians in 2024 because ALL those arrested (for the relentless trafficking of hard drugs into Seychelles based on the troubling weekly arrests they made at "Mahe International Airport" in Seychelles) were ONLY from the South East of Nigeria. This move affected thousands of other innocent Nigerians from flying into Seychelles for genuine holidays or genuine business transactions, so, other tougher means MUST be used to reset the brains of these drug barons and drug traffickers including the death sentences to eradicate this heinous crimes by those who regularly brag that they don't consider themselves as Nigerians BUT still go ahead to use Nigerian passports to commit drug trafficking crimes in Asia and Africa without any remorse while tarnish the image of millions of innocent Nigerians. When General Muhammadu Buhari's military Government introduced the death penalty via a decree back in the early 1980s, those of us who are older in age and were alive back in 1984 to 1985 saw how highly effective the death sentence was in stopping drug traffickers. All of them scampered off to hide. But after Buhari was overthrown by IBB and others who originally installed him earlier as the Head-of-State of Nigeria, General IBB and other subsequent Governments unwisely relaxed the death penalty due to political correctness which was very unwise. Singapore China Indonesia are some of the countries that have NO apologies to give for having enforceable death penalties and capital punishments in their laws.

Your post is highly misleading and NOT based on TRUE crime statistics. A whopping 77 South East of Nigeria advanced free scammers were declared WANTED by the United States Department of Justice in 2019 in the Web links BELOW just as the notorious International scammer Obinwanne Okeke (otherwise called Invictus Obi) was arrested by the FBI in the United States while trying to escape to Nigeria. This is NOT something to be trivialized.

1]https://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/headlines/348131-full-list-of-77-nigerians-charged-by-fbi-for-massive-fraud-in-america.html

Your FALSE figure about the SW being responsible for "80%" of fraud is fraudulent in itself because crime statistics show that many Nigerians from different ethnic groups are into fraud based on credible information from intelligence agencies and arrests made. ALL over Nigeria and you MUST remember that several non-Yoruba international scammers from different parts of Nigeria (many South Easterners, Niger Delta (Edo, Delta, Rivers, etc) have been arrested in sting operations in Lagos State because it is a cosmopolitan State with people from all over the world hustling and living there just like Kano or Rivers States are cosmopolitan.

Second, international advanced fee frauds are perpetrated by nearly ALL ethnic groups in Nigeria. The EFCC Chairman already cleared that up in the media interviews I have read by saying CLEARLY that MOST of the youths who engaged in advanced fee frauds school and live in towns and cities with higher institutions. These are some of the youths from the higher institutions in Owerri, Lagos, Ibadan, Enugu, Benin City, Ughelli, Yola, Rivers State, etc, who have been caught using their laptops and phones for fraud.

Like I stated, in 1 single day alone in August 1999, the United States Department of Justice declared a whopping over 77 Ibos WANTED for advanced fee frauds commited in the United States. The international media published their FULL names and origins online and offline from the United States Department of Justice, Premium Times, TVC and Channels Television Websites right BELOW:

Just see how biased you're. You came to defend the south west that I put at 80% but conveniently left out the Igbos where I am from that I put 98% in their own part.
In my last submission, didn't you read where I said the 3 tribes do others too but certain crimes are almost peculiar to majority side.
Igbos are into drugs, killings, scams. But where are they always being mentioned.
In the past one or two weeks, that frauds has been mentioned, is it not the south westerner.
Or when bandits strikes, is it not the northerners.?
.
I want you to get me straight, all the tribes commits all the aforemention crimes, but each of the tribes are most peculiar to a particular tribes. You should even be happy I put 80% on the Yorubas, but you didn't say anything when I put 98% on Igbos.

Learn to read online posts properly NEXT time and be less reactive. Read my original post again because I added more CLARITY with the names of 77 South Eastern Nigerian declared WANTED in 1 day alone by the United States Department of Justice in 2019 right BELOW.

1]https://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/headlines/348131-full-list-of-77-nigerians-charged-by-fbi-for-massive-fraud-in-america.html


I LARGELY agreed with your original post BUT ONLY DISAGREE with your highly subjective guess work and random 80% figure you gave to the SW which is NOT consistent with the REAL or official crime statistics on advanced fee fraud. Unknown to YOU, within the last 2 weeks as well, many Ibos have ALSO been arrested and reported in the mass media for international scams, so, the FACTS are CLEAR that this is NOT a SW thing and there is a very HIGH involvement of South East of Nigeria youths in this for many decades now. Go and read up about the embarrassing, heinous advanced fee fraud (419) activities of Emmanuel Nwude, his wife and their gang back in the 1990s and how he and his gang scammed a Brazilian bank in the BIGGEST ever bank fraud scam. This gang fortunately got arrested by the INTERPOL in partnership with Nigerian intelligence agencies after he had already bought with the stolen Brazilian bank money, high-rise buildings on Allen Avenue in Ikeja, Lagos State, he bought a large number of Union bank shares, and built mansions in his Anambra State while being celebrated by gullible soft sell magazines back in the 1990s. You are definitely young and this is why you don't know these open FACTS we knew back in the 1980s and relentlessly from the early 1990s about decades of involvement of large numbers of South Easterners in international fraud.


Second, the official figure of over 90% of international hard drugs trafficking by the cartels from the South East of Nigeria (arrested OR in foreign prisons in China, South Africa, Thailand, India, etc) is VERY accurate depending on what country the arrests are made. In Thailand for instance, 100% of ALL those arrested and jailed for hard drugs trafficking are from the South East of Nigeria. The SW, Edo and Delta States come next sharing a combined percentage of less than 5% of drug traffickers from Nigeria. Even at the Murtala Mohammed International Airport (MMIA) and Enugu International Airport, the NDLEA crime statistics and mass media reports still show that over 90% of those arrested for hard drugs trafficking at those International airports are from the South East of Nigeria. This is an official FACT from the crime and intelligence agencies such as the NIA and NDLEA for years now.

Go back and read my post again! I've added FULLER evidence of ALL my statistical claims with official global news reports and videos. The FULL NAMES of the very large number of 77 South East of Nigeria international fraudsters declared WANTED in 1 single day alone by the United States Department of Justice and the FBI is right BELOW. Have YOU ever seen or heard that even up to 5 Yorubas were declared WANTED for international fraud by the United States OR any other country in 1 single day BEFORE like those 77 South Easterners who were declared WANTED in single 1 day by the United States? The absolute answer is NO! So, how can you give a subjective OR random figure of 80% for the SW of Nigeria which is highly inconsistent with the official global crime statistics I have here for years now. Ramon Abass (Hush Puppi) and his gang were a total disgrace and I like the way his Yoruba folks openly criticized him and any other SW scammers for scamming innocent people. This is unlike others of South East origin who openly praise or hail the international scammers who are more from their own ethnic group just like they did in the case of the infamous international scamner called Obinwanne Okeke (the so-called Invictus Obi) and others right here on NL and other Websites.


1]https://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/headlines/348131-full-list-of-77-nigerians-charged-by-fbi-for-massive-fraud-in-america.html

Your "80%" figure of Yorubas is totally FALSE and NOT based on true crime FACTS. The Nigerians from the South East, South West, Edo, Delta, Rivers, etc, have the highest combined cases of advanced fee fraud from Nigeria. The EFCC boss also affirmed in mass media interviews which are still online, that many students and youths from practically ALL parts (or ethnic groups) of Nigeria are into cyber fraud in areas where their schools are located and they use their laptops and phones for scamming innocent people within and outside Nigeria.

Recently in June 2025, the infamous girl in her early 20s called Sapphire Egemasi, a Nigerian-born female international fraudster from Rivers State who is a so-called "tech queen" was arrested by the FBI for fraud alongside her male accomplices. Read more BELOW.
