The Special Assistant to the Governor of Anambra State on Youth Mobilisation and A chieftain of Ohanaeze Ndigbo Anambra Youth wing, Hon.

Ngini expressed his displeasure that the get-rich-quick syndrome has become a deified, noticeable trend mostly exhibited, to varying degrees, across social media platforms thereby breeding laziness, indolence, an entitlement mentality and potential criminality, rooted in a culture where many young people see ritual killings and fraud as the only way to make money.
He reiterated that the ills caused by the reliance of ‘Oke Ite’ fraud and other social vices as means to make quick and big money over bankable skills can never be overemphasized
Hon. Ngini emphasized that values reorientation process is a high priority of the present State government and for any society to experience positive and sustainable growth, positive values of integrity, hard work and patriotism must be upheld and encouraged.
