Nigerian skit maker and content creator Peller has claimed that some of the dollar notes sprayed on him during his wedding were fake.
Speaking in a video, Peller said he discovered the alleged fake dollars after returning home. He explained that while the Nigerian currency he received was genuine, some of the dollar notes were not.
According to him, he later visited a bank to confirm the money.
Peller said, “I went to the bank, and the Nigerian money was genuine. I saw that a lot of people gave me Nigerian currency. Yes, they gave me Nigerian currency, and that is good. I know the people who gave me genuine money; if I see them, I will recognise them.
“When they came, I saw them. They gave me fake money. I got home, I was feeling like a millionaire and used the money to make a video. ‘Hello, hello,’ and then I realised it was fake. I can’t talk.
“Since I went to change dollars yesterday night, I haven’t talked about the dollars since this morning, not even tonight. Is it by force to spray money?”
Peller said he recognised some of the people who gave him genuine Nigerian currency but claimed that some of the dollar notes he received turned out to be fake.
He said he only discovered the alleged fake notes after getting home and using the money while making a video.
The content creator added that he had decided not to continue talking about the dollar issue after trying to exchange the money.
He ended by questioning the practice of spraying money at events, saying, “Is it by force to spray money?”
Peller did not identify anyone he alleged gave him the fake dollar notes.
