Those are part of the IPOB Youths that hate Buhari with a passion and are sad that their jesus on earth, Jonathan was defeated.

They are sad because Buhari has blocked all the avenues for them to rob the country.

May God bless and protect Buhari

God bless Nigeria

This is a joint effort between the Yorubas and the igbos.

Imagine this same Efcc that couldn't arrest an ordinary yahoo boy during that clueless drunkard's era is now biting and barking from all angles... Never again will someone deceive the whole country with that I HAVE NO SHOES format

Hmmm, wonderful

Play around with hogwash and get praised till the economy crumble

These guys take time and effort to plan these illegal activities when they know the risks involved. The same time and effort would have been put into planning a legal means of earning a living. Now they are going to face the wrath of the law.
This attitude of wanting to make quick money with illegal needs to stop. What's wrong with our young men?

Thank God for Change.
