Immediately I saw the post, I saw scam written all over it. What surprised me more was the comments. Almost every one that commented knew it was a scam. At first, I thought I was reading nairaland and "Mod Justwise" trying to keep scam artist away But it is facebook. And the awareness of people to such scam surprised me. One facebook user said "is it becos jamb don Bleep some up dats why u people want to add salt to injury abeg go nd luk 4 wat to do"
This really makes me happy. And yes, I think (personal opinion) Nigerian student are wiser (smarter) or is it cos of the Nigerian situation?
And to think this was a facebook advertisement. Wonders how many would have falled to such schemes in the past.
God bless Nigerians!!!!
