Catholic priest, Reverend Father Chinenye Oluoma has castigated young Nigerians who commit “Yahoo Yahoo” fraud on the internet.
According to Oluoma, who spoke during a sermon, if they continue down that route in the way they are approaching it, things will not turn out well.
The priest bemoaned how Yahoo guys con innocent people out of their hard-earned money in a video that was put on his official Facebook page on Tuesday morning, saying that it would have been better if they had targeted corrupt politicians instead.
He said;
“When you pursue wealth at the expense of fellow humans, you are trashing people to get a treasure that will be a trash in your life.
I don’t understand when people who steal and dupe others get angry when ministers condemn it. Yahoo means a set of people who will just lock themselves in a house, look for somebody who is vulnerable using their computers and dupe the person everything he laboured for.
Then the person becomes so broke after 30 to 40 years of labouring. You steal everything the person has and the person is dying of depression, High Blood Pressure and heart attack and you are comfortable.
That some musicians even sing to endorse that kind of lifestyle means to you that it is normal? If Yahoo means tricking people, defrauding them of their hard-earned money, leaving them penniless and they die of heart attack, how do you want to end well? Some people even consider it as a legitimate hustle.
How can stealing be a legitimate hustle? If you are that kind of person, you can’t end well. If you are into such a thing, please don’t marry because if you marry and you give birth, your children will suffer the consequences.
At least if you want to be a Yahoo, target politicians who are stealing money. But you won’t target such people, it is people who worked honestly. At least, target the bad politicians so that on the last day you and God may have conversations on it.”
