Yahoo Yahoo Boys are small fry – Timi Frank
The activist who was reacting to a long list of young internet fraudsters recently released by the FBI, commended the FBI and other international security agencies for their onslaught against fraudsters in the country.
He said, “Corruption is gradually becoming a criterion to get appointment, especially under the current administration. The ‘Yahoo politicians’ are the role models of these ‘Yahoo Yahoo Boys.’ Those presently in government are not immune. They have turned Nigeria to the capital of poverty in the world.”
LOL. True talk. Was surprised when no Nigerian politician graced that FBI list. Either shows that FBI are slacking or our politicians are getting craftier.

Adeboye’s old-but-familiar advice
The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye, on Sunday urged Nigerians to support the military and other security agencies with prayers in their efforts at addressing the security challenges in the country.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that Adeboye spoke at his monthly telecast message, with the theme: ‘Our True Shield and Defence’, via the church’s television at the Redemption Camp in Ogun State.
“Some of us, all we know is to criticise the military. But we need to know that they too are human beings like us and they have their limitations. What we should do is to continue to pray for them so that they can record success in their operations,” Adeboye said.
Okay, Daddy G.O, but you know prayers can only do so much when those that should do their jobs refuse to? Okay o.
