    Greed, simple. A young lady who could save up N500,000 (half a million Naira) to bankroll such a trip from somewhere to nowhere is already doing good business even by Nigerian standards. It is not about poverty.
    It is time to deal decisively with this shameful act that is painting all Edo State indigenes black. The Edo State government, supported by the Oba of Benin Council, must rise up as one and attack this canker that has eaten and corrupted the very heart of its youth. The parents of these young ones cannot absolve themselves from responsibility for this form of corruption. Bini, Bini, Bini. Enough is enough.
