Senator Uzodinma Causes Stir With Dollar Spray At Funeral by Ugochukwu45: 9:50am On Oct 08, 2014
It took the intervention of security operatives today, to save Senator Hope Uzodinma from mobs at the funeral of Prof. Josephine Anagbogu, younger sister to Senator Hope Uzodinma.

The Imo State Senator was dishing out dollar notes to youths you converged near the canopy where dignitaries were being entertained. But the crowd became difficult to control when some youths who saw what was going on joined.

It took security men attached to the Senator time to whisk him into his car as the youths resisted attempts to keep them off.

On entering his SUV car, Sen. Uzodinma sprayed wads of dollars, causing youth and even security men to scramble for it.

A young man who was lucky to pick up a large catch of the foreign currency was almost suffocated as the crowd held him down in a bid to take part of it for themselves.

Some observers blamed Sen. Uzodimma for such show, but others insisted that
he was only doing his bid to help the poor.

This man sef. Saw him at the Catholic Church in Maitama a few Sundays ago. . .na so so ogalanya showmanship everywhere he goes. Shouldn't display such at a solemn occasion like a funeral.

To be fair to him though, he was already a billionaire long before he became a Senator, before we start shouting that he is wasting Senate money.

Is this man a lawmaker,or a lawbreaker?.
Imagine him abusing currency?.
If you want to help the youth,why not build skill acquisition centres for them,or award scholarship to bright ones?.how about conditional cash transfer,for business or agric loan scheme?.There are thousands and one ways,via which he can help the youths or his community,and not indulging in an awkward method of opluence showmanship.its quite disgusting.

If this story is true, it's illegal to spray money and illegal to use dollars in Nigeria. I understand the average man being able to do it out of ignorance but a ....senator?
