- An elderly Nigerian man got so upset after visiting a bank to withdraw money from his account
- In a trending video, he saw the queue at the bank hustling to collect cash for themselves and he got so heartbroken
A video making the rounds online captures an older Nigerian man venting his anger at a bank.
The sad man lamented over his inability to withdraw cash from his account, despite spending a long time at the place.
He lamented that his wives and children are hungry at home, and threatened to take the bank to court for their actions.
In his words: “We are not beggars. We come for the money we put here. So the next thing is to court so they will compel them to give us our money. We are hungry at home. We cannot eat at home. Our children are hungry. Our wives are hungry.
“I’ve travelled around Europe and I’ve never been to a place like this in the world. They don’t even care about us. I think we should go to court. I cannot eat. I cannot do anything. They locked the door against me. Nobody can even explain to me what’s going on.”
