Social media users are in stitches over a Nigerian woman’s ruse to get a big grant by tricking her father.
In order to qualify for a N5 million award, the woman persuaded her father to pretend to be incapacitated by saying he had had a stroke.
Her father demonstrated his remarkable acting abilities by portraying a person with a disability in the video that @egooyibooooo uploaded to TikTok.
He had suffered from the illness for eight years, according to his daughter, who gave a running commentary.
“We are here to apply for the N5million grant for the disabled. My daddy has been down with stroke for eight years now,” she said.
Her father, however, temporarily stopped performing when he started to worry about the possible repercussions of the practical joke.
As the video went on, he became increasingly worried about his reputation and frantically asked if his siblings would see it if it went viral.
He played along despite his initial reservations, receiving praise from his daughter, who used the term “paid actor” in jest.
In her words: “Pranked my dad to act disabled for N5 million disabled people grant. My dad is a paid actor for real.”

A Rivers State High Court, sitting in Port Harcourt has dismissed a motion on notice seeking leave to appeal as an interested party in the suit filed by William Fialasoika and 24 others against the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, over the party’s congresses in the state. The sacked PDP Rivers State Chairman, Chukwuemeka Aaron, had filed the motion on behalf of those purportedly elected as state executives. Also included were Oye Fubara Igenewari, representing those elected as local government executives, and ThankGod Beke, representing ward executives As interested parties, they asked the court for permission to appeal the ruling that removed them from office.
