I was going through the social media and came across this news about the Economic and Financial Crime Commission Chairman, Olukoyede saying that 7 out of 10 Nigerian students are involved in cyber crime. This is not something to be proud of because it means that 70% of Nigerian students are into cyber crime which I think it is not true entirely when deeper analysis is done about it.
We know that the rate of cyber crime within Nigerians and especially student is increasing but I don’t think it has gotten to that level that he said already. We know this moment are hard times and the economy is not friendly to everyone. Settling for cyber fraud shouldn’t be the last resort for any Nigerian. How can this be averted in the country and what are the possible solutions to stop students from involving in such criminal activities.

Di fact say pesin no need any special qualification to enter politics mean say pesin fit become rich overnight if e enter public office. Dis get-rich-quick syndrome dey influence young people wella as dem dey try make money by all means, even if na through crime. But e get other things wey dey cause dis matter; poverty, unemployment and inequality rates dey increase. Cybercrime dey look attractive to many people because di chance say dem go arrest you dey low, and many of dis criminals get di physical and technical resources.
