A Nigerian Tale of Mistakes, Mobile Alerts, and Marital Mayhem

You know that moment when you send money and immediately feel a disturbance in the force? Like the universe is whispering, Omo, you don mess up.

Meet Chidi, a regular Lagos man with two bank apps, one wife, and one unfortunate side chick. Chidi thought he was the CEO of Double Life Inc.—until his banking app humbled him in 4K ultra HD.

THE TRANSACTION THAT BROKE A HOME

It all started on a Friday evening. Chidi, feeling generous, decided to send ₦150k to his wife for groceries. But his muscle memory betrayed him. Instead of sending the money to Madam Legit, he wired it straight to Monica, aka Side Chick Supreme.

Transaction Successful.

At first, Chidi didn’t realize what had happened. He went about his day, completely unaware that his life expectancy had dropped by 50% in the last five minutes.


THE WHATSAPP APOCALYPSE

Then, his wife, Chisom, called.

“Daddy’m, I didn’t see the money.”

Chidi’s soul left his body, did a somersault, and re-entered. He rushed to check his transaction history and saw the horror:

N150,000—Monica Chikodiri (Side Chick for Emergency Situations).

PANIC.

Sweat instantly covered his forehead. His phone suddenly felt ten times heavier. He tried to think fast. Maybe he could reverse the transaction? Maybe he could deny everything? Maybe he could fake amnesia?

Before he could act, another notification popped up.

Monica: “Awwww, baby, thank youuu. But why so much?🥺❤️”

His knees buckled.

But how did Chisom find out? Simple—she was built different. When the money didn’t arrive, she did what any sharp Nigerian wife would do: checked his banking app notifications (because women just know). One quick glance at the transaction history, and boom—Monica’s name was there, loud and clear.

She didn’t scream. She didn’t cry. Instead, she activated Revenge Mode.

Then came the FINAL BOSS MOVE—his wife added him and Monica to a family WhatsApp group.

GROUP NAME: Chidi, Explain Yourself.


THE PLOT TWIST THAT FINISHED HIM

Chidi tried to control the situation. He called Monica immediately.

“Send it back! It was a mistake!”

Monica, feeling like the main character in a Nollywood movie, was already calculating how many miniskirt and sundress she could buy from her favourite Instagram vendor with ₦150k.

Unfortunately for Chidi, Monica was ALSO dating someone else—a married man who just so happened to be Chisom’s cousin.

By the time Chidi’s wife was done collecting receipts, screenshots, and sworn testimonies, the family WhatsApp group had turned into a courtroom drama. His mother-in-law entered the chat:

“You see your life, Chidi? Is this what my daughter left her father’s house for?”

His pastor entered the chat:

“Chidi, let’s pray against this spirit of foolishness.”

At this point, Chidi was considering permanent relocation—to Kenya, Ghana, or the afterlife.


THE PUBLIC HUMILIATION: CHIDI150K GOES VIRAL

The story might have ended there, but the gods of premium disgrace had other plans. Somebody leaked the screenshots.

By Monday morning, Chidi was trending on Twitter as #Chidi150K. The streets of the internet were on fire:

➡️ “Omo, who sends 150K by ‘mistake’? My guy, just say you wanted to sponsor her soft life.”
➡️ “Chidi’s wife is a queen! I love how she handled it. She even collected refund + interest.”
➡️ “Monica is the real MVP. She played the game AND cashed out.”

Even Jumia’s official account joined the banter: “Oga Chidi, you need a refund policy.”


EPILOGUE: HOW CHIDI TOOK THE GREATEST ‘L’ OF ALL TIME

Long story short? Monica sent the money back—but straight to Chisom’s account.

Chidi, a once-proud man, was last seen sitting quietly in his parlor, staring at the ceiling fan like it held the meaning of life.

Meanwhile, Chisom and Monica had become besties.

His kids? Asking why Daddy now sleeps in Uncle Kunle’s house.

His reputation? Gone.

His bank app? Uninstalled.

The lesson? If you want to live long, double-check your transactions. Also, Lagos women don’t play.
