Yahoo Boys are Causing Visa Restrictions For Nigerians – EFCC Warns(AFRICAN EXAMINER) – The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has cautioned that the increase of internet fraud is increasing visa restrictions for innocent Nigerians abroad.
The EFCC Chairman, Ola Olukoyede, stated that fraudulent practices aside from destroying the future of those involved, also taints the global image of Nigeria and this leads to stricter travel conditions for law-abiding citizens.
He said: “The EFCC boss highlighted that internet fraud, money laundering, and economic sabotage cost Nigeria billions of naira annually, undermining national growth and depriving citizens of infrastructure, jobs, and opportunities.
“Beyond the economic damage, he pointed out that the crimes erode Nigeria’s international image and subject innocent Nigerians to stricter visa restrictions abroad.”He tasked young people across the country to channel their energy into productive endeavors like digital innovation, entrepreneurship, agriculture, and the creative industry.
Don’t destroy your tomorrow with shortcuts today.”Olukoyede reaffirmed the commission’s readiness to intensify sensitisation, enforcement and collaboration with communities to combat fraud and related crimes.
