Serah Ibrahim, a woman from Nigeria, expressed her frustration online when a friend ended their relationship after borrowing a large sum of N7.6 million.
She lent the money to her friend as proof of funds, hoping it would be repaid.
Serah shared on her social media account how the financial setback from not being able to recover the money made her reconsider her generosity towards friends.
It has been two years since her friend stopped responding to messages after borrowing the N7.6 million.
In her words: “Remember sending a friend 7.6 million naira for proof of funds. It’s been 2 years. And yes, she doesn’t even respond to my messages anymore. That money set me back so much, but I go way too far for my friends. Took her like a sister, so the hurt is different. NEVER AGAIN.”
Nigerians stormed the comments section to react to the post.
Best Temperature said: “Give her time; she will definitely pay you back. She might be struggling to get a hold in Canada right now. Except she moved on PR, if not, give her time. She might not be responding because it’s choking her. I’m making a case for her Serah because I know how difficult it is to settle.”
KC Emenike said: “Wow. 7.6 million. And the girl probably dey Canada/UK dey enjoy free basic amenities right now o. Should we summon her spirit back to Naija? Na jus small e need.”
