A Nigerian father has gone viral after alleging in an emotional video that he discovered that his wife inflated their daughter’s school fees, collecting nearly half a million naira from him while paying far less.
The video, posted on X by user @AsakyGRN, has since sparked widespread sympathy and heated online conversations.
According to the man, his wife had earlier told him their daughter’s school fees amounted to ₦480,000, money he willingly provided, believing she wanted the best education for their child.
However, his world was turned upside down when he personally visited the school and was told the actual fees were just ₦145,000.
In his words:
“Please men don’t allow your wife to register your child in school. My wife collected ₦480,000 but she paid ₦145,000. I only discovered when I went to pick up my daughter and asked about assignments. I was shocked when they told me their school fees is ₦145,000. That’s why I had to go alone, because Mama Aria didn’t want me to know.”
Concerns over wife’s lifestyle
The man further revealed that his wife had been buying clothes and claiming they were gifts from a friend abroad, heightening his suspicion about her spending habits. He expressed pain and frustration, questioning the foundation of his marriage.
He admitted to parking by the roadside to gather his thoughts after the discovery, confessing that he was torn about whether to continue in the relationship.
Online reactions
Social media users have flooded the comment section with mixed reactions, some sympathising with the man and urging him to confront his wife carefully, while others advised counselling and reconciliation.
Kenzy IAM stated: “With all this extortions, she won’t even refill the gas when it finishes she will still want the man to do that. Now ask yourself why men dies first in this part of the world.”
Mufty of Ilorin noted: “Except he’s not responsible at home, every man even a billionaire will be pained. This is not the fun we think it is.”
Loud Life opined: “No peace for the wicked. Y’all will leave the good one and then end up with whatever it is you end up with and then come online to tell us when things didn’t turn out good. When you were choosing her did you tell us or ask for our opinion?”
