A video of a Nigerian lady using a thousand naira note to design her artificial nails has gone viral on social media.
In the viral clip, the crisp note, which is yet to be identified as real or fake, is first shown in its whole state before having the figures cut out and emblazoned on her long artificial nails.
This comes several weeks after Nollywood actress and media personality, Nancy Isime used dollar bills to adorn her nails.
Nigerians have reacted angrily to the video, accusing her of insulting the naira and demanding that she be punished by the relevant authorities.
Some reactions gathered from Nigerians on social media:
@hen_bobo, “Abuse of our currency.”
@iamjhunp, “She could actually be arrested for that! Not smart for me except the money is fake.”
@m.i.z.a.b.e.l_xo, “You people are so rich
