A Nigerian man has stirred major controversy online after making a bold financial offer directed at popular comedian and outspoken supporter of the current administration, Seyi Law. The man pledged to pay the sum of £150,000 if Seyi Law can successfully provide President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s primary and secondary school certificates, as well as the names of the schools he reportedly attended during his early education in Nigeria.
This unusual challenge was posted via X (formerly known as Twitter) by a user identified as @chymaker, who did not mince words as he questioned the credibility of the President’s academic history. The tweet instantly went viral, sparking heated debates across various social media platforms.
In his post, @chymaker tagged Seyi Law and emphasized his seriousness by declaring his readiness to transfer the £150,000 into a neutral third-party account. He insisted that the money would be released to Seyi Law once the documents are provided and confirmed to be authentic.
He wrote: “Dear Seyi Law, if you provide Tinubu’s primary and secondary school certificates and the names of those schools, I will pay you £150,000.”
“I am willing to deposit that amount into a third-party account so it can be forwarded to you once the information is provided and verified.”
The tweet concluded with a jab at the comedian’s political affiliations: “Let’s stop tweeting for attention and make real money. That’s probably why you accepted an SA position that doesn’t even pay up to that in a year.”
The provocative nature of the challenge quickly drew public attention, prompting a flood of reactions in the comment section. Many users expressed differing opinions on the matter — with some questioning the motives behind the tweet and others offering sarcastic or critical takes on the President’s educational background.
See some reactions below:
@McDanielEngrCo: “Let’s agree with you that he didn’t go to primary and secondary, how did he study in Chicago without O’ Levels. Would you say he bribed the school to testify that he attended?”
@famesh2002: “As usual, always dealing in the mundane. Why should anyone produce the certificates of another? It’s clear that you can’t support Peter Obi and have a modicum of cognition.”
@owolanky: “Should I do that and you will provide the money for me? Shey oni ori e ope ni?”
@IruojeElvis2: “This kind of blackmail against Pbat is dead and is irrelevant going to 2027 election. Using the same strategy used before 2023 election is like sleep with the corpse.”
@bulalathegreat: “Let’s assume he did not go…shouldn’t u be amazed at his level of intelligence and intellectual capacity to study at Chicago University. Don’t u think u are just worried about the wrong things. Who gives a flying fuck about primary and secondary school certificate ffs???”
@Oludari_: “I have forgotten that Seyi Law is Tinubu’s father and mother, you don’t need birth certificate too??”
@sebastineogb: “He can never do that for real, the Chicago University is the name of a woman and not his name.”
