The Federal Government of Nigeria has expressed serious concern over the growing threat of cyber-slavery across West Africa, warning citizens — particularly young Nigerians — to be on high alert.
In a statement issued on Sunday by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs spokesperson, Kimiebi Ebienfa, Foreign Affairs Minister Yusuf Tuggar highlighted the alarming increase in cases where Nigerians are lured abroad with false promises of lucrative jobs, especially in cryptocurrency-related fields.
