Relax, in no time, you’ll see things from a very different perspective.
Indeed, Tinubu’s regime is not favourable to many, but you see people who earn in dollars? This is for sure their best.
Now, guess who cashes out in dollar?
Yahoo Boys, yes, you are very correct.
The then APC bannerman had stormed Edo state, Benin’s capital on January 5, 2023, just before the elections.
As the party’s song blasted through the heavy speakers, Jagaban danced through the crowd.
With the mic stationed before him, he shared what he intended to do.
“We will turn the so-called Yahoo Boys into experts at the manufacturing of chips. If you want prosperity, elect me, you want skill to become rich, elect me,” Tinubu screamed.
He was eventually elected, and trust Jagaban, he did more than he promised.
Dollar became gold.
It has gotten to a point where freelancers are dumping Nigerian firms for foreign companies all in the chase for dollar.
Now, everybody just wants to earn in dollar.
At this point, Yahoo Boys will only be smiling and saying “Thank you Jagaban”, because they are the only people that automatically earn in dollar.
The high arrest rates of internet fraudsters by the EFCC stands as a testament to the growth that industry has enjoyed in the shortest time possible.
The EFCC has remained focused and committed to the fight against internet fraud and other cyber crimes.
