How much does Nigeria rake in from Internet Fraud?

We have a Police. They say they are diligent. Some swear they are efficient.

However, I doubt the quality of their training. My thinking stems from stories of extortion in their training schools.

Whichever way one looks at the issue, in these times of dwindling foreign direct investment, I do not support crime, it will be interesting to know how much comes in illegally, through Internet Fraud? Drugs is another matter entirely.

Crime bursting is the job of the Police and after the Abba Kyari incident, it will be hard for the Police to distance themselves from Internet Fraudsters.

Who does not know that the #EndSARS protests were an offshoot of the disagreement or attempt by Internet Fraudsters to free themselves from the yoke of the Police.

It is never official. But no knowledge is a waste. At least, I know the Police knows. It would give citizens the opportunity to share that knowledge with the Police.

The Yorubas have a saying,  that ' another name for a lie is: do not let anybody know'.

Let's know if the energy the Police commits to tracking the Fraudsters is worth it. Perhaps it could give us Nigerians the opportunity to know if some Fraudsters are deserving of National Honours reminiscent of Knighting of the likes of the slave raider Francis Drake by the British Royals.

Some local titles may then make sense. At least like Dangote makes money from essential commodities, the source of wealth of these Chiefs would also become public knowledge.

Thereafter, the real Police would be known either as friends of the people or their enemies, whether they tolerate crime or fight it.

Remember, the saying, giving a dog a bad name in order to hang it. We should not let FBI or CIA tell us.

Knowledge is power. We should arm ourselves with this knowledge and know whether we are doing enough or not to combat it.

At least, what is it worth? Who are the beneficiaries or perpetrators?
