- A Nigerian man was sending his mother money to keep for him while abroad only for her to pull a fast one on him
- He returned to his home in the South East only to find out that she had squandered all the money and he was back to square one
- The story has sparked a debate on social media as people compared it with the unconfirmed Hakimi divorce saga
A Nigerian man identified as Napaul has advised people to pray for wisdom in whatever situation they may find themselves as what worked for Achraf Hakimi may not work for them.
Napaul made this statement on Twitter while sharing a sad story involving an Owerri man whose trust was betrayed by his mother.

According to Napaul, he knows of a man who was working abroad and usually sent his mother money for safekeeping.
However, the man returned home only to find out that there is no money left. The implication means that he was back to square one. Napaul’s post reads:
“I know a guy at Owerri that hustled abroad and kept sending money to his mom to keep for him, lol blud came back & he had nothing.
“This life no get script.
“What worked for Hakimi make not work for you, Just pray for wisdom in every circumstance you find yourself in.”
