“I withdrew ₦1.4m from my mother’s account to bet while she battled a stroke” — Man

A young man has reportedly been caught by residents after allegedly withdrawing about ₦1.4 million from his mother’s bank account to fund sports betting while she was battling a stroke.

In a viral video circulating on social media, the man was seen being questioned by security personnel following the alleged withdrawal.

While responding to questions, he read out figures from a document he was holding, including dates and amounts he had allegedly withdrawn from his mother’s account.

He reportedly confirmed that the total amount he had withdrawn from the account was about ₦1.4 million, which he allegedly used for sports betting.

The incident has sparked reactions online, particularly because the withdrawals were allegedly made while his mother was sick and receiving treatment for a stroke.

Some social media users criticised the young man’s actions, while others suggested that he may have hoped to make more money through betting to support his family.

One United wrote: “The hussle na for mama. He wanted to double the money to pay the hospital and some other bills. His intentions were pure but his actions was bad.”

Foxy wrote: “No man does this to his mother. This is a complete failure of character and financial discipline.”

Blingznew wrote: “Very foolish and wicked man that’s not how to invest money.”

David wrote: “😂😂bro thought he could take his family out of the trench. With the money before she recovers. So sad anyway.”

Please return the money immediately. She will definitely need more than that for medical treatments.

Hope u won, don't loose that money

This would be heartbreaking for the mother.

You see bad parenting ba, once the pikin becomes wayward, na with the parents dem dey first that before dem go out

Omo osan ti nko ponpo ba iya e leyi o..abi iru katikati wo leyi....

When senior citizens have fraudulent debit from their accounts, we would ask if they have a young person living with them. This is after they have sworn with their lives that they never compromised their debit cards or mobile banking details.

Most times it is an errant son like this or an evil looking caregiver who would rush out to the ATM by 7am to withdraw before mama wakes up.

It is usually so heartbreaking for them when they see the thief is a loved one.

Stay away from gambling

Finished man, hard drugs if dey on the low

Make Dem put am for black market.. the boy organs go get value wey the family go use replace am

Heartless and lazy youth. Gambling with another person's sweat.

You don't know what God has done for you if you're free from gambling.

Different strokes for different folks 🫠

Until Government bans sport betting in Nigeria, sense will run away from many youths

Kobojunkie:
If betting is not banned, why are those attacking him attacking him? 😒😒

Most of them are addict players throwing stones on the young boy

Saw a thread where he was begging for iphone 11.

How was he caught? He stole his mother's money. Did she report him to the authorities for the crime? Or did strangers decide to attack him and, in the process, get the confession out of him? 😒😒
