Outrage As Nigerians React To Video Of APC Member Spraying Naira During Tinubu’s Adamawa Visit (Watch)

A video capturing a woman spraying naira notes during President Bola Tinubu’s visit to Adamawa State has ignited widespread outrage on social media, with many Nigerians accusing authorities of selectively enforcing laws against currency mutilation.

The incident occurred as popular Hausa musician Dauda Kahutu Rarara performed his latest song, ‘Omo Ologo’ (Child of Glory), in honor of the President.

In the circulating video, a yet-to-be-identified woman dressed in All Progressives Congress, APC, attire approached the stage and sprayed naira notes while the performance was ongoing.

She was later cautioned by another woman standing nearby, but the brief act quickly drew attention online after clips of the moment spread across social media platforms.

 

Several users on X criticised what they described as unequal application of the law.

One user @Clement C Mbanugo wrote: “I blame Nigerians for the arrogance of EFCC bandits. If those idiots come to arrest anybody in your area, make sure they don’t go back with their complete teeth.”

@Nigeria is my only country, said: “The law is meant for only the people that are not supporting APC. Mtcheeeew.”

@King Dave 3 commented: “It’s only in Nigeria spraying money is a crime, but you’re free to spray in front of President Tinubu. Everything is fine if you’re APC member.”

Other users also reacted. @CRT ekeh posted: “Dem no go see this one o,”

@CHUKWUEBUKA added: “The law no be for everybody.”

Some commenters compared the incident to previous cases where individuals were reportedly arrested or prosecuted over naira abuse.

@PETER OBI’s TRUMPETER claimed that while the woman was only cautioned, others had faced harsher consequences for similar acts.

@Emmanuel Benjamin argued that the reaction might have been different if supporters of opposition figures were involved, while @BIGI simply said: “Make them go arrest am nah.”

The African Democratic Congress (ADC) in Owerri Municipal, Imo State, has concluded its Local Government Area Congress, with Hon. Success Opara emerging as the new Chairman. The congress, conducted in all wards across Owerri Municipal, saw party faithfuls voting for Opara, who is expected to lead the party to victory in future elections.

However, there’s an ongoing leadership tussle within the Imo State ADC, with Chief Emmanuel Amushie claiming to be the authentic state chairman, recognized by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC). On the other hand, Prof. James Okoroma has also been declared the authentic state chairman by the national leadership of the ADC.

Furthermore the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has removed the faction led by Prof. James Okoroma as the recognized leadership of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) in Imo State, as of April 9, 2026. INEC recognizes only the Amuchie-led Executive as the lawful and legitimate leadership of the ADC in Imo State.

The removal follows a Court of Appeal ruling directing parties to maintain the status quo pending the determination of a substantive suit before the Federal High Court. INEC has also suspended recognition of all leadership factions of the ADC until the court reaches a final decision.
