A Nigerian lady has managed to earn the ire of netizens with a video that was meant to invoke their sympathy.
The video was a recording of her opening her savings box after months of diligently keeping money in it.
When the lady @adejoke4761 cracked open the wooden box, very easily, as some netizens pointed out, she appeared shocked to find pieces of paper stuffed into the box.
Instead of money, torn pieces of paper filled the box, with ₦500 and ₦1000 notes scattered within.
She looked crestfallen, implying that she had expected the box to be filled with cash, but as seen in the video, that wasn’t the case.
No other context was provided by the lady except the caption, “I decided to open my savings box to and It ended in plenty of tears” , leading netizens to speculate.
Many pointed out that the video was fake, as many aspects shown in the video did not make sense.
The way she opened the wooden box so easily, her reaction to the contents of the box, and the pieces of paper in the box that served no purpose.
They accused the lady of staging the entire thing just to go viral online, mocking her for her desperation.
