That is very good news to me. I did see the high rating it got, and was so very relieved about that.

I don't know if it's clear in my essay but he used Nigerian gangs specifically because they're the ones notoriously going around exploiting and scamming wherever they can. Had he used SA gangs, it would have rung hollow and untrue, and probably audiences in Johannesburg would have asked him which Johannesburg he's living in.

And in some respects, it's the logical, scifi end of some of the scams Nigerian criminals are pulling today. I lmfao'd when they mentioned the "catfood scam." It was evilly perfect.
