Social media is buzzing after a video surfaced from billionaire businessman Obi Cubana’s star-studded 50th birthday bash, showing an unnamed guest spraying stacks of cash that could rival a bank vault.
The opulent party held in Abuja drew celebrities, dignitaries, and influencers but it was this jaw-dropping cash display that stole the spotlight.
The man behind the money reportedly told the person filming not to show his face. While recording, the videographer threw shade at Nigerians abroad hustling through double and triple shifts, igniting online backlash.

Here’s how Nigerians are reacting:

@Tundephilps: “Mocking those doing legit hustle and earning per hour just because you’re lucky to blow in Naija… Alaye, abeg 😑”
@UgochukwuChib19: “Every hardworking Nigerian is always a target for mockery. This kind of content only pressures genuine people. Life isn’t a competition.”
@tundebabseben: “You wan dash person money but you dey carry very old note. This one na money laundering, abeg.”
The video has added even more fuel to the fire of Cubana’s birthday buzz but not everyone’s clapping. Some see it as celebration, others as unnecessary pressure.
