A Nigerian mother triggered a social media controversy by alleging that the school gave her daughter a present worth only #2,000—a small portion of rice—at her graduation party, despite the fact that she paid #10,000.
In a video posted on her page, she expressed her displeasure with receiving such a gift from the school.
She displayed the package her daughter received from school, pulling out a food flask she said was worth only $2,000.
The mother also presented the plate of food handed to her daughter, bemoaning its size and the small portion of rice.
She criticized the school and claimed that the present was not worth the money she paid for the party.
Her post has sparked widespread interest among social media users, who have rushed to the comment section to voice their opinions.
