In the wake of E-Money’s EFCC invitation, celebrity barman Cubana Chief Priest has taken to social media to issue a stern warning to fellow public figures: stop spraying money at events.

In a message shared on May 1st, 2025, he wrote:

“If you are a well known businessman with address, please don’t spray money. EFCC are not joking on this. If you already have an invitation letter from the EFCC, please go and honor it. For now, spraying of money don cast for we wey dey popular. I nearly go jail last year. Me I no go ever spray again—whether dollar, euro, naira or pounds.”

He added that he’s now focused on finding new ways to make a statement at events, without risking arrest. His message is clear: with EFCC now cracking down on naira abuse, celebrities and socialites should be cautious.

“If you spray money, EFCC must come for you. Happy new month fam. Avoid wahala.”

Cubana’s post has sparked conversations online, especially among those who see public spraying of money as a core part of Nigerian celebration culture. However, with regulatory agencies stepping in, it seems the era of money rains may be coming to an end.

Lessons learnt...
Now this should be extended...
Anyone who disrespects Nigeria should be made to pay the price...
U are free to criticise what you don't like but criticism should be constructive aimed at improving the government not to destroy it....
If you're caught disrespecting Nigeria... There should be a law to punish you with the full weight of the law... No exceptions

Everyone is trying to avoid trouble.

Well, for your UK used and new smart TVs and soundbars, do check my signature.

Just give out the money. Must you spray.
Nigerians find it hard to obey simple laws.

That is called showbiz.

If you know how much business this jas brought him. You wont say this.

You might have just money but people will trust a popular figure without money than you.

Fame is honored.

Make those rules in your immediate family...that's the only place it's applicable.

If not for "eye-service" why would any sensible individual spray money?
If you truly want to make a fund donation in any gathering, wouldn't you have done that, by packaging the money in an envelop, cartons, etc then present to the celebrant? Or better still transfer to his/her account?
The idea of spraying money in any event is typically for a show-off, personal gratification, intimidation, etc.
The tradition of spraying money of whatever currency/denomination should be frowned at because, it's bad to the society and also promote all sorts of get rich quick mentality.
