Eteffia’s story is a somber reminder of the devastating effects of cybercrime and the importance of mental health awareness. Raised by his aunt after losing his parents, he managed to establish a PoS business in Uyo with support from family and friends. However, after being defrauded, he exhibited signs of emotional distress, including sharing cryptic messages on social media and withdrawing from social interactions.
This incident has sparked conversations about the need for increased mental health support and stricter measures against cybercrime in Nigeria.
