In a startling revelation, a Nigerian woman is under scrutiny for orchestrating a fabricated wedding and purportedly diverting the funds raised from Asoebi sales to finance a trip to Canada.
The incident came to light when Twitter user @AkiMarlin shared the story, exposing the accused woman’s alleged deception.
According to the account, the woman, known as a popular vendor around the IMSU (Imo State University) area, sold Asoebi and hand fans for 50,000 and 10,000 Naira, respectively.
The funds collected were intended to support what was believed to be her wedding.
The accused woman organized a bridal shower at a hotel, providing a location for the event.
However, suspicions arose when she was conspicuously absent from the gathering.
Eventually, her friends unraveled the truth – there was no wedding, and the woman had reportedly departed for Canada the following day.
News of this deceptive act has triggered reactions and discussions on social media platforms.
Netizens have expressed their dismay over the losses suffered by the victims, with some commenting, “So this lady sold Asoebi to about 60 of her friends for 50k each & hand fan 10k,” and detailing the sequence of events leading to the discovery.
The accused woman’s actions have left many questioning the trust placed in vendors, particularly in the IMSU community.
The incident highlights the importance of vigilance and due diligence, even in seemingly celebratory events, to avoid falling victim to fraudulent schemes.
