Outrage Over APC Member Spraying Naira During Tinubu Visit

During President Bola Tinubu's visit to Adamawa State, a video surfaced showing a woman, identified as an APC member, spraying naira notes while popular Hausa musician Dauda Kahutu Rarara performed. This act ignited widespread outrage on social media, as many Nigerians accused the authorities of selectively enforcing laws against currency mutilation.

The incident, which occurred on February 17, 2026, drew significant attention online, with users expressing their discontent regarding the apparent lack of consequences for the woman involved. Critics highlighted a perceived double standard in law enforcement, referencing previous cases where individuals were reportedly arrested and prosecuted for similar acts.

Social media reactions included comments questioning the effectiveness of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) and the overall application of laws in Nigeria, particularly in relation to political affiliations. The incident has sparked discussions about the implications of such actions and the enforcement of currency regulations in the country.
