Nigerian TikTok star Habeeb Hamzat Adelaja has once again sparked online debate following an incident during his nationwide tour.
On March 24, during the tenth day of his tour in Ibadan, a video surfaced showing the influencer tossing cash into a crowd. The clip quickly went viral as fans scrambled to collect the money, including a uniformed individual caught up in the commotion.
The chaotic scene unfolded amid traffic, with people rushing to grab the falling bills. One striking moment featured a man in tattered clothing repeatedly attempting to secure some cash but failing each time.
Reactions to the event were mixed. Some viewers condemned the act, labeling it disrespectful and insensitive, particularly given the economic struggles faced by many. Others saw it as a lighthearted or generous gesture, though poorly executed.
This incident follows other controversies surrounding Adelaja’s tour. Previously, the Benin Traditional Council reportedly declared him wanted after he visited the palace in Benin City without permission. The council stated that his presence violated local customs and protocols.

@dokitawaa:”It may look like a joke, but this is the reality we keep normalizing. A man was made to run after a car with the promise of money… only to be laughed at and given nothing. That smile at the end says everything. This is what happens when fame and power lack empathy. Sad to watch, even sadder to accept.”
@ryde_king:”Na man do man finally? Abeg, the real savage is the algorithm and everybody reposting faster than that kid running for the bus. Poor man pikin never catches a break — even their bus chase becomes your comedy reel. Peller na werey? You na the real werey for posting this and acting heartbroken”
