Meanwhile, Legit.ng earlier reported that a Nigerian man sprayed a couple onions on their wedding day.

As of November 2020, onions became very expensive in Nigeria and also very scarce so seeing a man spray a couple with onions was like giving them gold.

The man who some Nigerians decided to tag a 'billionaire' stole the show during the couple dance.
