Here is the ABC's 20/20 documentary  of December 9, about Nigeria's emerging social problem - email scam.
This is a three-part video. Go inside the page to view the other parts

"The bedrock for today's economic and financial problems in Nigeria was laid by this man, Ibrahim Babangida!  He created conditions malignant to national advancement, such as the institutionalization of the culture of corruption that is now heavily entrenched in the social and moral fabric of the Nigerian society." by Citizens For Nigeria

"The phenomena of the notorious thievery schemes or theft-by-deception, a.k.a "419," is largely believed to have gained undue prominence and seeming acceptance during the eight-year misrule of Ibrahim Babangida in Nigeria. Today, the nuisance of the so-called "Yahoo Boys" is believed to be a by-product or creation of the IBB era. What is the moral justification for a society to wage war on scammers when known social culprits enjoy stolen public wealth without restraint? These conditions have been almost impossible to reverse. And now, IBB is out again to try to make vain the labors of our heroes past."  by Citizens For Nigeria

"“The musical chairs being played by the military, let us make up our minds not to dance to this thing. Enough is enough. We are being insulted. Right, left and centre. What is it? People shoot their way to power, accumulating masses and masses and masses of resources through illegal means and using the assets to come and dominate our lives all over again." - Prof Wole Soyinka, Nobel Prize Winner, commenting on General Babangida's presidential ambition.
