The Commander who was represented by ACE Williams Oseghale, Head, Public Affairs Department, warned the students not to be lured into internet fraud as it was capable of truncating their dreams of a good life. “Internet fraud is evil and it can mess up your life completely. So say no to it,” he said. He charged them to be disciplined and hardworking in order to achieve their dreams in life and to use the internet responsibly to enhance their learning.
He said the Commission will continue to arrest and prosecute internet fraudsters for their criminal activities which portrays the country in a bad light in the comity of nations.
The principal of the school, John Lucas who lamented the multiplier effect of corruption in the society commended the Commission for the enlightenment campaign. “This is something we need in this country, to enlighten the young minds on the problems of internet fraud. Corruption is a huge problem in our society. So enlightenment like this will go a long way in moulding the next generation of leaders so that we can have a better society,” he said.
