I don’t bt one can’t continue a life of crime forever. The right thing must be done at the end of the day. Becos of how easy or rather quick it is many youth have thrown away virtues and principles like patience and hardwork for money at any means and cost. If every youth becomes a yahoo boy what will become of our future? Exactly. Things have to change.

The government has to step up also and do the right things to guide the youths while trying to stop the vice.
I don’t think it can be curb in anyway cause it’s already part of us. Some parents are even the ones who solicits for their children on how to start the “game”.

It can bro. I know folks who where once in it and have left for good. Nothing is part of u beside what u allow and permit to be part of u. It may take time bt with the required effort it will reduce or stop totally. It’s like the fight against drugs and crime. When the Government is serious they will get rid of it.

Same goes with criminal politicians it just takes a serious government.

I laugh when people talk about yahoo boys, the funny thing is that almost all Nigeria family either have one yahoo boy or the one they don’t know about. grin

Yet some will come online to curse and insult the ones dem catch forgetting their friends and brothers are G-boy. At the end of the day, they will still go to dem to beg for money.

This country is heading for iceberg like titanic, if nothing is done – it will sink. It’s not about online prosecution and noise.

What are the government (fed, state, LG) doing to curb unemployment? Even some of us wey one learn legit online business, where the light or data?

But still; go legit, stay legit, legit pays!

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), said it recorded no fewer than 200 arrests of Internet fraud suspects, popularly known as ‘Yahoo Boys’, in October alone.

The Acting Chairman of the commission, Mr Ibrahim Magu, stated this at an interactive session with newsmen on Friday in Abuja.

According to Magu, the biggest catch of the commission was Instagram celebrity, Ismaila Mustapha, a.k.a Mompha, and his Lebanese accomplice, Hamza Koudeih.

He said the suspects, who were “kingpins of an Organised Cyber Syndicate Network (OCSN)”, allegedly laundered a total of N33 billion.

Magu said: “Five wristwatches valued at over N60 million were recovered from Mompha at the point of arrest.

“Investigation has also revealed that he operates 51 bank accounts in Nigeria with which he acquired properties in Dubai and had laundered about N14 billion through Ismalob Global Investments Limited.

“His accomplice, Koudeih, also has two firms namely: THK Services Limited and CHK properties Limited with which he has allegedly laundered about N19 billion.

“Koudeih lives in a five million dollar per annum suite at the Eko Atlantic Pearl Tower, Victoria Island Lagos.’’

The EFCC boss said the arrests underscored the agency’s commitment to the fight against corruption and economic crime.

He added that there were also clear messages to “high end fraudsters that they can only run, but cannot hide, sooner than later, we will get them”.

“The effort to flush out all fraudsters continues. At the same time, we will sustain the tempo of vigorous prosecution of fraud cases in court.


“Indeed, fraudsters account for a huge percentage of the 890 convictions that has been recorded by the commission this year.

“A number of assets have been seized, while victims have also enjoyed restitution by order of court,” he said.

While noting that the battle “is far from being won”, the anti-corruption czar renewed his appeal for the support of stakeholders, especially the media, for the commission.


Magu said the youths, who were mostly involved in cyber fraud, needed sensitisation to the consequences of their actions not only to their future but to the nation’s image and economy.

He restated the commission’s resolve to rehabilitate those ready to turn a new leaf, and help them to put their skills to good use.

“The youth must learn the virtues of integrity and hard work as the path to sustainable wealth.


“They must realise that crime does not pay; rather it will destroy their prospects and ruin their chances of decent living.

“For those who are remorseful and prepared to turn a new leaf, the commission is fully disposed to help in channeling their energies and cyber skills to positive venture.

“We are considering a policy that will help in the rehabilitation of convicted, but repentant internet fraudsters.


“This is to ensure that their skills are positively applied in helping to build a better Nigerian society,” Magu said.

Nothing can stop yahoo internet fraud especially in Nigeria where there is so much lacks, social deprivations coupled with years of corruption, misgovernance and maladministration by the ever greedy political elites.

The focus of the federal government and the state government should be on the young teens coming up so that they are not frustrated to copy the lifestyle of the aging fraudsters.

Those who have tasted yahoo money in which they blow over night in the midst of massive poverty and hunger in the land do not want to change.

It takes the grace of God to change the mindset of this internet money machines.

I think the federal government can reduce internet fraud and other related crimes by embarking on massive job creation especially in the agricultural sector.

Every Nigeria family with a school leaver or graduate must be employed in a gainful employment.

It is the responsibility of the federal and state government to create jobs.

Leaving youth unemployment to grow unchecked is a timebomb.

The more jobs the federal government create will help to disencourage new recruits from taking the parts of fraud.

i am very impressed with the EFCC. Gone are the days where you brazenly spend ill stolen funds without shame or fear. Today the fear of EFCC is the beginning of wisdom. please what is the EFCC doing about corrupt political office holders and also civil servants. The same efforts the EFCC is using to arrest the machineries of 419 folks should also be applied to political and public service persons.

One expect government to create massive jobs to tackle youth unemployment but the government is busy pursuing yahoo boys who manage to pick stipends from Western Union of which the federal is still wasting public funds prosecuting these guys
