An alarming video has emerged on Instagram, featuring a Nigerian lady who claims to have experienced a distressing incident of assault perpetrated by her boyfriend. Following the harrowing ordeal, she received a series of lavish gifts, including money, a luxurious bag, and a wig, as seen in the video.
In the video, the young woman is visibly emotional with tears in her eyes, and in subsequent scenes, she showcases a significant amount of money and other expensive items she received as compensation for the reported abuse.
The disturbing footage quickly caught the attention of numerous Nigerians, prompting a flood of reactions and opinions in the comment section.
Here are some of the reactions:
gylliananthonette: "For a person to hit you, he knows you have no self-esteem... Some say it's better to cry in money than in poverty... IVD is gone, but the man is still here, living life... One blow, one frontal."
the_real_tobe_official: "So y'all have turned toxic relationships into a trend/challenge. Let me save all your videos for future use because if any of you dies, and someone starts saying 'Justice for [your name],' may God punish that person."
c.h.e.f__g: "Only a poor person will have this mentality. How will you be crying in exchange for material things? My gender always disgracing me."
js_glams: "What about people who endure these punches but still get nothing? What are they really looking for?"
sandypreneur: "Should this kind of trend be encouraged? Are you people telling the younger ones to endure any form of domestic violence for material things? What about the ones who have lost their lives? This is not right, please."
bestoemex123: "Because of money, you want to risk your life. Ladies and money!"
freda.ovi: "Just days ago, they were recovering the dead body of her colleague. I won't pity girls who die from domestic violence anymore."
