Ezekiel Awojide, Abuja
Days after he returned from the custody of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission for
alleged naira abuse, Emeka Okonkwo Daniel (a.k.a E- money) has advised Nigerians to stop indiscriminate spraying of naira at parties.
Operatives of EFCC picked up E- Money for alleged naira abuse on Monday, April 28, 2025.
He was arrested at his Omole, Lagos residence in the late hours of that day.
His arrest followed an alleged spraying of American dollars which was said to be against the Foreign Exchange Act.
He was flown to Abuja where he was interrogated.
After his release, E-Money in a post via his Instagram page on Thursday, advised Nigerians against spraying money at social events or during celebrations.
He said doing so amount to currency abuse.
He wrote, “Let’s celebrate responsibly and avoid fines. Respect our currency!”
“If you must give money at a party, make sure you put it in a basket, bowl, or box in front of the person.
“Don’t drop any currency on the floor. This is advised by the EFCC. Ignorance is not going to be an excuse. Let us be aware and abide by the rules since it’s the law of the land.”
