Why wouldn't Thailand? Yeah your right they shouldn't have arrested the guy over only 10g ???? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KarenBravo Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 Nigerians have a very bad reputation within Africa. From Kenya, Tanzania to South Africa, Angola, Congo and the Cameroon, they are despised as drug dealers, con-artists and general dishonesty. Yes, there must be good Nigerian people, but, unfortunately, the stereotype has already set. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Croc Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 "Organized crime in Nigeria includes activities by fraudsters, bandits in northern Nigeria (such as looting and kidnappings on major highways), drug traffickers and racketeers, which have spread across Western Africa. Nigerian criminal gangs rose to prominence in the 1980s, owing much to the globalization of the world's economies and the high level of lawlessness and corruption in the country."

Of course every country has criminals. The point I made with that quote was that Nigeria has developed a culture of criminality above most others in the region, and has a deserved reputation for certain types of criminality around the planet. I also speak from personal experience not just from internet sources. I've had many dealings with Nigerians. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take the Chinese and the Mexicans for fentanyl for example, Cocaine from certain South American countries, heroin and the golden triangle etc, etc, etc! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
