A trending clip circulating on social media captures a politician (reportedly from Kebbi State) handing out ₦200 notes to a queue of youths in his community.
The man, dressed in traditional attire and wearing a cap, is seen holding thick bundles of cash while distributing the small amounts one by one near his car.
What started as an apparent act of generosity quickly drew widespread criticism and mockery online, with many Nigerians calling the gesture insvlting amid the current economic hardship, where ₦200 can barely buy a small sachet of pure water or a few pieces of biscuits.
The video has fueled debates about "p0verty politics," vote-buying tactics, and the need for real empowerment initiatives rather than token handouts.
Is this genuine goodwill or just another political stunt?
