A video showing a woman spraying naira notes during President Bola Tinubu’s visit to Adamawa State has sparked widespread outrage on social media, with many Nigerians accusing authorities of selective enforcement of laws against currency mutilation.
The incident occurred as popular Hausa musician Dauda Kahutu
Rarara performed his latest song, ‘Omo Ologo’ (Child of Glory), in honour of
the President.
In the circulating video, a yet-to-be-identified woman
dressed in All Progressives Congress, APC, attire approached the stage and
sprayed naira notes while the performance was ongoing.
She was later cautioned by another woman standing nearby,
but the brief act quickly drew attention online after clips of the moment
spread across social media platforms.
Several users on X criticised what they described as unequal
application of the law.
One user @Clement C Mbanugo wrote: “I blame Nigerians for
the arrogance of EFCC bandits. If those idiots come to arrest anybody in your
area, make sure they don’t go back with their complete teeth.”
@Nigeria is my only country, said: “The law is meant for
only the people that are not supporting APC. Mtcheeeew.”
@King Dave 3 commented: “It’s only in Nigeria spraying money
is a crime, but you’re free to spray in front of President Tinubu. Everything
is fine if you’re APC member.”
Other users also reacted. @CRT ekeh posted: “Dem no go see
this one o,”
@CHUKWUEBUKA added: “The law no be for everybody.”
Some commenters compared the incident to previous cases
where individuals were reportedly arrested or prosecuted over naira abuse.
@PETER OBI’s TRUMPETER claimed that while the woman was only
cautioned, others had faced harsher consequences for similar acts.
@Emmanuel Benjamin argued that the reaction might have been
different if supporters of opposition figures were involved, while @BIGI simply
said: “Make them go arrest am nah.”
