If those idiots come to arrest anybody in yourarea, make sure they don’t go back with their complete teeth.” @Nigeria is my only country, said: “The law is meant foronly the people that are not supporting APC. Mtcheeeew.” @King Dave 3 commented: “It’s only in Nigeria spraying moneyis a crime, but you’re free to spray in front of President Tinubu. Everythingis fine if you’re APC member.” Other users also reacted. @CRT ekeh posted: “Dem no go seethis one o,” @CHUKWUEBUKA added: “The law no be for everybody.” Some commenters compared the incident to previous caseswhere individuals were reportedly arrested or prosecuted over naira abuse. @PETER OBI’s TRUMPETER claimed that while the woman was onlycautioned, others had faced harsher consequences for similar acts. @Emmanuel Benjamin argued that the reaction might have beendifferent if supporters of opposition figures were involved, while @BIGI simplysaid: “Make them go arrest am nah.”Video of a woman spraying money infront of President Tinubu has now sparked conversation...
