This is the worst of all, its so tragic, only if the government would intervene to save the life of this young man.
 
While some Nigerians are still busy complaining over the statement credited to US Senator Ted Cruz about is ranting on yahoo boys in Nigeria, another Nigerian, identified as Ejiogu, has brought us shame.
 
Ejiogu who was arrested at Vietnam’s Tan Son Nhat Airport, after arriving from Thailand, with drugs found in 19 nylon bags hidden in a battery charger, has been sentenced to death by a court in the country.
 
During interrogation, Ejiogu claimed that he was asked by a man to carry some goods… The goods, he claimed, were in the 19 nylon and the battery charger to Vietnam for him, adding that he did not know there were drugs inside.
 
But he couldn’t provide any information of the said man in court. What a sad way for this young Nigerian to end his life!
 
In the end the fact still is, we should stay away from illegal businesses.
