A Nigerian politician has caused a stir on social media after a video showing him surrounded by bundles of cash inside an apartment went viral.
The video, shared on X (formerly Twitter) by user @IU_Wakilii, quickly gained widespread attention, fueling discussions online.
Prior to the video’s release, a photo of the politician, reportedly a member of the House of Representatives, surfaced online, showing him with stacks of cash.
In his initial post, @IU_Wakilii captioned the photo:
“Northern Politicians. This is a Member of the House of Representatives.” At first, many users expressed skepticism, with some claiming the image might have been doctored or fake. However, to refute these claims, @IU_Wakilii later posted the video, writing, “This is photoshop too?.”
The video has since sparked a wave of comments, with many users expressing disbelief over the massive bundles of cash.
Netizens Reactions…
@tellmarh: “I can’t understand the idea of just sitting on money. Can’t fix roads, can’t build schools, can’t fix Hospitals, nothing. It’s crazy. 2ndly, I thought banks don’t have cash to dispense. I thought maximum amount a person can withdraw is 40k.”
@OlayinkaJubri: “I don’t understand why terrorism is allowed to fester in the north and not allowed in the southern.80% ,if not more than the funds budgeted for insecurity in Nigeria end up in the north.yet the north always remember.”
@siyuty: “As long as it’s not a bribe being given out or collected. There is nothing to worry about. You guys should mind your business ooo.”
@nehemiahnanmwa: “This is a disaster. Unfortunately, it goes to tell our level of political orientation In this country.
@SumolaIdowu: “The funniest thing is that all this money fit no reach 2 million dollars. Currency devaluation is a bastard.”
