To EFCC: In the last 5years, you folks have been acting like a
lame-duck, only running around yahoo boyz and internet
scammers whose fraud activities are not up to N100million.
Where did you guys suddenly get the courage to start going
after the big boyz (Governors and the Cabal).
To Ifeanyi Ubah: Did you think that your publicity stunt of
ditching your friends and calling for the prosecution of your
fellow fraudsters was going to make you look like a saint.
All the same, Change is here. Jail Them All.
