DeleteI'm surprised he's using iPhone 8 with all the billions I'm seeing up there. Maybe he was coming to Nigeria to pursue the 1 billion naira court case he put against Bob.
Former comment of 1 billion naira court case against Bob is by Bianca Bruno. My I.D nor gree me log in for months now.
DeleteSurprised he is using iPhone 8, why because he should be using the latest phone abi..?.Well real cyber criminals do not use fancy phones and there is a reason why..

Good for him, they should arrest all of them that flaunt their ill gotten wealth on social media without a legitimate source of income, arrest them, their wives and girlfriends of those useless yahoo boys.infact,arrest all their family members that must have eaten out of the criminal proceeds, awon modern anini.
ReplyDeleteThose yahoo boys that don't work for their money undermine the hardwork of good guys that work legimately.
billions kee you there, money that you didn't work for, I think there should be death sentence for fraudsters cause I see no difference between them and armed robbers.๐ ๐ ๐
ReplyDeleteMy dear there is certainly no difference between them and armed robbers, sub zero DIFFERENCE.
DeleteThey will still release him. Do you know who he is laundering for?
