A recent, amusing incident has captivated social media users. A woman reportedly faked her own death. This elaborate ruse aimed to avoid repaying her thrift contribution, known as ‘ajo’.
The story, initially posted by @babyblogger_new on Instagram, identifies the woman as Imisi. She had apparently been dodging her financial obligations.
Facing increasing pressure, Imisi and her sister allegedly conspired. They planned a theatrical way to evade her creditors.
The Elaborate Hoax Unfolds
The sisters filmed a video. In it, Imisi appeared deceased. This footage was sent to the ajo group. Their goal was to fake her death.
The viral video showed Imisi. She was wrapped in white cloth. Cotton filled her nostrils. She lay perfectly still. This created a convincing illusion of death.
Simultaneously, her sister posted a message. It told the group Imisi had died. The sister blamed threats linked to the debt.
Public Reaction and Aftermath
This event triggered extensive online discussions. Many Nigerians called it an “unbelievable debt evasion tactic.” Others humorously suggested an “award for best actress.” Imisi was the nominee for her “financial crisis” performance.
Her repayment status remains unknown. However, the story quickly gained traction. It shows extreme lengths people go to avoid obligations.
