Bawa stressed that “the penalties of internet crimes are stiff” and enjoined students to avoid temptations that may lead them to crime and jail.

 

“Romance scams, business email compromises, hacking, impersonation, forex scam, and others are corrupt practices and must not be found among you,” he advised.

“Money always comes, it may not come in your early life. But if you work hard with integrity, you will make more money than you ever believed,” he advised.
