Popular Nigerian singer, Simisola recently shared her opinion on internet fraud.
The singer explained that Nigerians need to change their mindset about Yahoo boys if they want the world to look at us differently.
The singer expressed that internet fraud is wrong and there is no way around making it look good.
She advised people to try and change the mind of those involved in internet fraud if they cannot report them.
Simi said the only way to change the way the world addresses Nigerians is if we decide to change ourselves and encourage others to do so too.
The singer, who shared her thoughts on a live video she shared on Instagram, was challenged by a fan who told her that Yahoo boys are the ones buying her songs and watching her videos on YouTube.
Responding to this fan, the singer stated that if the Yahoo boys are going to rationalise their evil deeds by claiming that they buy her songs, they should stop patronizing her songs or watching her videos.
This is a courageous stand to take about a serious issue affecting us as a nation with the way people justify internet fraud with poverty and lack of jobs.
Some Nigerians came for Simi after her video insulting her and they even dragged her husband Adekunle Gold into the matter.
Here are some of the reactions from angry Nigerians:
