Viral Video: Lagos Revelers On Edge As Fear Of Naira Spraying Spreads, Abike Dabiri-Erewa Speaks Out

The Chairperson of the Nigerians in Diaspora Commission, Abike Dabiri-Erewa, has detailed an incident where many party attendees in Lagos State expressed apprehension about spraying Naira at a gathering. This unease stems from recent legal actions taken against individuals accused of mishandling the national currency.

It’s noteworthy to recall that the Federal High Court in Lagos recently convicted controversial Nigerian personality, Idris Okuneye, popularly known as Bobrisky, for offenses related to Naira misuse. Bobrisky received a six-month prison sentence without the option of a fine.

Similarly, Nigerian entrepreneur and socialite, Pascal Okechukwu, better known as Cubana Chief Priest, faced legal proceedings earlier this week on charges related to Naira misuse, specifically for allegedly spraying and altering the currency at a social function. Cubana Chief Priest pleaded not guilty to the accusations and was granted bail set at N10 million with two sureties.

Abike Dabiri-Erewa shared her observations in a video posted on her Instagram page on Saturday. She recounted her experience at a birthday celebration in Lagos, noting that she, along with others present, felt hesitant about engaging in the customary act of spraying money.
