Nigerians get New Pattern of Spraying Money During Occasions
Amid the EFCC assault on naira abusers, some guys have devised a novel method of’spraying’ money to evade prosecution.
The EFCC has already detained Bobrisky and Cubana Chief Priest for misusing the naira.
After pleading guilty, the former of the two celebrities received a 6-month prison sentence.
Some guys who are concerned about getting caught by the EFCC have devised an alternative method of raising funds at their event.
The celebrant is shown dancing near a large wooden box into which people are dropping money. The footage was uploaded on Twitter.
Rather than throwing it on the ground or at the celebrant, they took out notes and tossed multiple bundles into the box.

@game_boss360 said: “Igbo men will never carry last”
@N6ofLife said: “I love my people. We dont deceive ourselves. An African wedding or event without money being Sprayed is proper nonsense. Let’s look for more creative ways to spray money. EFCC can go to hell.”
@victorEdeh said: “And this one looks like a better option.”
@udehemmanuel16 said: “One thing I love about Nigerians is that, they will always find a way through.
We are Unstoppable.”

In commemoration of this year’s International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women, the House of Representatives will lead a landmark march on Monday, November 25, 2024, along with other strategic activities as part of its unwavering commitment to eradicating gender-based violence (GBV) in Nigeria.

According to him the march, which starts at 8:00 AM, will bring together over 1,000 participants – including Representatives and members of the public – on a symbolic walk from the National Assembly to the Headquarters of the Nigeria Police Force.
This demonstration of solidarity will culminate in the submission of a petition to the Inspector General of Police, demanding decisive action to safeguard vulnerable populations and ensure accountability for perpetrators of GBV.
“This march and the associated activities are not just symbolic gestures, they reflect our resolve and call to action against gender-based violence head-on,” said Hon. Abbas Tajudeen,, Speaker of the House of Representatives.
“We stand united in the fight to protect the rights and dignity of all Nigerians, especially the most vulnerable. Together, through collective action and legislative reforms, we can build a society where safety, justice, and equality prevail.”
