[size=20pt]@Lawyer: why did you re edit the title of this thread. This is not what I put up initially.
I wrote " A self acclaimed Nairaland builder is finally arrested for fraud"
Why you commot the Nairaland na?[/size]

It will give Nairaland a bad name and most of us will be affected because it takes one bad apple to spoil the bunch.
All people will read is Nairaland and Scam. We already have Yahoo boys messing-up internet, I don't think we want same for Nairaland.
One stupid person can bring the whole network down, do we really need that? Let's not make it look like it's Nairaland that caused it.

they probably have the same life story
shady beginnings, hit it big and had an opportunity to go straight, but opted for greed and went full criminal.

You can never be as great and successful as inspired, not in this life and in the life to come. while you continue to whine here like a swine, dude has moved on big time, take time to follow him on instagram to see his business success and think twice about how low and pathetic your life is.

Yes the same Bosun aka Brabus or n3xt on Nairaland. He is extremely controversial and has the most complains i have ever seen on Nairaland about theft, misuse of funds and poor delivery of work. Everyday people call me to ban him or help them get their money but nemesis has finally caught up with him. There is a 500 page thread dedicated to building and half of the pages deal with complains about Brabus:

https://www.nairaland.com/2550211/general-topic-thread-to-discuss-anything/476#48523286

Its time we weed out those that want to give honest people on Nairaland a bad name.
It took you this long to realise that Brabus is a fraud? Nawa o! You could have acted faster to protect other Nairalanders by banning that fraud. However, your inaction will rub off, negatively, on the reputation of the Nairaland forum because the news is now everywhere. @Seun and @lalasticlala is there any damage control here?

What Job? Arrest him? Prosecuting him? There are only 2 things i can do. Warn people and ban him and i did both so many times and he launched an assault against me with his minions. Have you asked why he has so many handles? Its because they have been banned over and over again. What was the proof that he stole their money until someone decided to prosecute him? When people transfer money to him at my back or the back of others where we there? Am i a debt collector? I am not here to fight anybody but to act on facts. I have called Bosun privately so many times to sort out the issues he has with people and some people that claim he defrauded them still post on Nairaland that they have resolved it and he is doing a good job. Once again i have done what i am supposed to do as a mod here on the property forum.

If you don't see what i do i am sorry about that. I choose to be quiet and would remain quiet. I cannot satisfy all of you. I can only warn people when there is conclusive proof. [b]Even Mr Agoro that is a very close friend of mine called me to ask about Brabus before he engaged him and i warned him to stay clear off him and later on i read on Nairaland that he paid him money and there is now an issue. [/b]What was i supposed to do afterwards? Must i always come on Nairaland to blacklist people when there is no solid proof? Now there is proof and its to warn FUTURE people that want to deal with him.

sincerely, i can not reconcile the way so many of us think. once a contractor has repeatedly messed me up, particularly in issues of integrity/character [ competence can be said to be a journey] , i will not have anything to do with him, and i will not recommend him to other people. yet i see my colleagues who have had the same experiences with these contractors still recommending them to other friends and telling me nonsense like, we dont know where we will meet in future.

Oga lawyer sorry for all the bashing directed to you on this topic. But you are wrong and every1 bashing you is right. You claim to have acted when you could and how you could but that's incorrect as this first happened years back. The issue died. It happened again after some months it died. It happened again, it died off. All this time he kept on coming back with new monikers, we all knew it was him even you. He kept on commenting on topics. He kept on proposing for new projects but nothing was done about his case by you. In fact the reason why this bosun guy doesn't appear here again is due to the collective efforts of them 3strikes and others and and a result of him criminal activities.

short of blocking an ip [which is not a true solution] there is not much a moderator can do with a persistent scammer who keeps manufacturing ids.
in the end it is up to the buyers to do their due diligence.

this is nigeria. you cannot trust anyone. be sceptical of anyone and everyone, particularly where money is concerned. understand that most 'businessmen' are not long sighted enough to think of future business opportunities and teh value of a reputation but the here and now.

Just the same way your father was in handcuffs few years ago, we know you more than you think, the guy you want to kill yourself over is living his dreams, you have been on nairaland for almost 10 years and your pathetic low life still has not changed, I pray you dont end up miserable like your criminal Father.

Being one of the people who gave Brabus a chance and he messed it up big time. Here is how I see things. I have known Bosun for almost 5 years now. Comes across as a builder (but he's not a builder, he hires workers (some competent, majority are not, then refuses to pay them)), but what he really does best is package/document things often with western ideas, hence why he resonates well with people in diaspora. He also knows how to use social media/emails/technology etc, so for someone who is not in Nigeria, this works well. Thank God internet is now for the masses, I have my bricklayer/pop/iron bender/carpenter/plumber etc all on whatapp now. This was not the case 4/5 years ago. GOD BLESS NIGERIA.

What happened ?

Bosun Shoyoye / Brabus was allowed to use this platform to promote his criminal deeds and to also proceed from it. Often defrauding people in the diaspora. Nairaland was like his second home and his second wife, he could not help himself, he often preyed on the desire of people in the diaspora to own thier own home in Nigeria and not fall victim of family fraudsters etc. Family fraudsters are even worse.

why was it allowed to go on ?

My view is that some rub my back, I rub your back was going on between some senior controlling office holders of the NL hierarchy. I have no proof, so this is just a theory.

What could have changed ?

I have said it countless number of times that Bosun is making Nairaland a platform for fraud, you only have to click on my posts to look at it. You will notice that I have said this so many times. It is a good thing that he is getting this kind of negative publicity. I feel that the mods could have created a sticky about Bosun and his antics to warn others. If not for the collective efforts of people like myself/3strikes/brag3/Qc1 who have exposed Bosun Shoyoye and his actics, I am sure it will still be going on now. We managed to stop him on his tracks since August, at least to stop posting google pictures, defrauding people and deceiving others.

It it also a shame that we have some monikers who clearly support his antics, we have users like lastpage/excuseme/Azuh and a chap called Agarawu or so.

There is a limit to how much liability users can hold Nairaland for in these matters.

This is not a Craigslist or ebay or Amazon or Jumia or konga. It is a social media platform that we are taking advantage of to do business.

Unless nl becomes a platform where you register with fees, do kyc, sign undertakings and contracts, theres not much that can be done.

I'm sure for instance that none of this brabus fellow victims signed a binding contract with him. They just went with trust.

If the Admin cannot ban or deleted his access, who else could have done that. My signature tag was changed because of people like Brabus.
