The request by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) on the whereabouts of six Nigerians, whom the United States indicted for fraud, has sparked outcry on social media.

The six Nigerians are Uzuh Richard, Alex Ogunshakin, Felix Okpoh, Micheal Olorunyomi, Benson Nnamdi and Abiola Kayode.

They were among a list of 79 persons declared wanted by the US — 16 Russians, 20 Chinese and 37 Arabians.

On Friday, the bureau took to its Twitter page to seek help in finding the Nigerians wanted for “their involvement in ​business​ email ​compromise (BEC) schemes resulting in over $6 ​million in losses”.

The manner in which the FBI announced the criminal alert appeared to have gotten a lot of Nigerians angry and consequently opened the floodgates of negative reactions on social media platforms, particularly Twitter.

Majority of those who commented on the issue called out the bureau for singling out Nigerians, who are the least on the list, while ignoring countries with higher nationalities.

You have a point! But let's be Serious with ourselves!
With The Massive Fraud in the past couple of months.', we can't really blame them.

Invintus obi and that gang performed wonders!
Ramoni Igbalode and his gang have done it again..

It's Really painful and unfortunate..

You can't really blame them..

It's welcoming. Our leaders have chosen to delete the future of youthdom with their outdated pattern, greed and over ambition. The old are the main thieves in politics.
