@coola: Cooking books= fraud, once over = she looked at the accounts, ie before she handed over

Really, Nigeria's not yet mature to the level of ppl like pat and okotie.. Ours still muddy politics.
@all what have you guys to say about the new proposition by efcc that cafe operators nw have the right to SPY on cafe users in addition to barring night browsing.

I must confess I just read the new EFCC "law" just a few days ago. I was shocked at the amount of powers they have been given like:
- all Cybercafes/GSM/Telecoms operators must provide the names, phone numbers and addresses of their clients when asked for.
I think implementing it will be difficult... and will only make the crooks smarter. Besides... they will need some serious tools to be able to track ppl that browse in cybercafes.
So are they saying I have to fill a form b4 browsing in a cybercafe?
Can anyone autheticate the info I will give?
Is the EFCC able to capture all the data that will be generated?
What surprised me is how I never heard about the review of the law all this time. How can we allow such?

@coola: In South Africa a similiar law came into practice a couple of months back...at most of the official retail stores whenever you buy a sim card you have to show your ID book so your details can be captured...most ppl don't mind the biggest opposition came from the cellphone networks cause it would cost them money to store all this information.

Read "EFCC's plan to register cyber cafes" here (Check the right column):

The full gist:

Ok... I just cut-and-pasted some of the stuff:
*....President Obasanjo had in June, this year, granted his assent to a new
law requiring service providers to keep records of internet users in the
country and register with the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission
(EFCC) under a programme to check the use of electronic communication
network to combat fraud. *
*The new law, the Advance Fee Fraud and Other Related Offences Act 2006, also repeals the Advance Fee Fraud and Other Related Offences No 13 of 1995 as well as the Advance Fee Fraud And Other Fraud Related Offences Act 2005.
*"Any person whose normal course of business involves the provision of
non-fixed line or Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM) or is in the management of any such services, shall submit on demand to the Commission such data and information as are necessary or expedient for giving full effect to the performance of the functions of the Commission under this Act", says the anti-fraud law.*

@coola: its all bull****!!! Our govt likes to put up frivalous laws that impenge on the rights of the many to over thoer own lapses. If I'm a 419er, at the rates that phone companies are offering internet now + the cheap costs of 2nd hand computers, do i need to go to a cafe? Place your bets here: How many people will they actually catch after a year of implementing this law?? If its up to 10 i'll be surprised. Its like how theyve outlawed overnight buses cos of bad roads and armed robbers. Instead of fixing the problem, they are trying to impede our rights as a quick fix. soon they'll say no falling sick on weekends because doctors will be at home!!!!
@all: another bad day in the middle east. Hezbolla keeps increasing their range into Israel, Israelis keep killing innocents, destroying bridges, power stations, sewage systems, shopping areas, Oil infirmaries???? No proof that any militants in the areas bombed. How can this madness stop?
(and all the while, oil prices hit the roof, Naija officials are making serious money while we languish in poverty!!!!)
