A Nigerian woman has rejected a car gift from her son on her birthday, citing concerns about his source of livelihood.
The woman in a short video shared by Maria Ude Nwachi via her verified Facebook handle accused the young man of being an internet fraudster and lamented that he intended to use her for rituals by virtue of the car gift.
Despite attempts by the young man and his friends to convince her into accepting the gift, she refused and ordered him to take it away while also bursting balloons used in decorating the car.
According to her, he is still a university student with no job and as such shouldn’t be able to afford such a whip.
“You are just a student. Which work are you doing?” she said to him.

Ifeanyichukwu Ugwuoke said: “Acted. “Which one be “son”? “She no even see side mirror scatter, na balloon she de blow. Abegi.”
Desmart Kalumalu Orakaeze said: “Poor acting. The son doesn’t have name?! “Which mother calls her son, “son”? “And not Ochuko or Chukwuebuka or Bamidele or Musa?”
