A trending video from the lavish traditional wedding ceremony of popular talent manager, Asa Asika, has stirred a wave of reactions online after bundles of Naira notes were visibly displayed.
Asa Asika officially tied the knot with his longtime partner, Leona Adesanya, on May 17, 2025, in a glamorous event graced by prominent entertainment industry figures and dignitaries from across Nigeria.
In one of the viral clips from the celebration, superstar singer Davido was seen standing beside a table stacked with neat bundles of Naira, giving a heartfelt speech about Asa Asika’s crucial role in his career journey over the past 14 years. His voice nearly broke as he acknowledged the deep bond they share.
During the emotional moment, Cubana Chief Priest, a well-known businessman and socialite, was seen beside Davido offering support and encouragement. A lighthearted conversation followed, during which Davido jokingly asked Cubana Chief Priest how much he would donate to the N5 million Naira gift bundle displayed. The businessman confidently pledged a whopping N10 million in response.
This public display of wealth sparked conversations online, especially amidst ongoing concerns about the availability of cash in Nigeria. The appearance of such a huge amount of physical Naira at a private event drew criticism and concern from netizens, with many questioning the role of financial institutions and authorities in regulating such flow of currency.
