Internet fraudsters popularly known in Nigeria as Yahoo boys, have become the favorites of landlords and property owners in Kogi State, an Estate Manager, Peter Suleiman has lamented.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Mr. Suleiman on Monday decried the spate at which landlords pick fraudsters over genuine business people in the state, noting the development as encouraging crime in the state.<\/p>\n
According to him, many house owners have hiked their yearly house rent without doing any renovations.<\/p>\n
Suleiman, who is the Chief Executive Officer, Good Trust Estate Management Limited, admonished the State Government to urgently check the excesses of the landlords, warning that their continued exploitation of genuine citizens will spell doom for the state.<\/p>\n
He said: \u201cIt is quite unfortunate that landlords in Lokoja and it environs prefer to give their houses to Yahoo boys instead of law abiding citizens.<\/p>\n
