In a tweet by @hackSultan on X, the man said his friend always came up with stories and excuses when the money matter arose.

He then said his friend called him recently and asked to pay back the money and he told him that his debt had increased to N3m.

The man noted that it was either his friend paid N3m or not pay at all.

The tweet read:

“Borrowed a friend 1,250,000 three years ago, it was an urgent thing, to be repaid that weekend when his salary drops. His salary did drop but my funds never. He said something came up and it’s been stories and excuses since.

“He called now and wants to pay me back this morning, I said he’s now owing me 3M naira at least and no longer 1,250,000. We’ve been on the case since. Either pay me 3M today or keep the whole 1.2M forever. No fight.”

“Forgive him.”

@AjeboDanny said:

“The relationship is already ruined whether he pays or not. Might as well just collect your money.”

@HeyImaVC said:

“You are in the right now what kind of argument could you possibly be having? He is even lucky that you aren’t including extra fees for loss of enjoyment etc after all this time.”

@Razaki_22 said:

“Hmmmm it is well why not collect the 1.2 and tell him he owes you for defaulting, if he likes he should give you if he likes he shouldn’t. It’s just using emotional reverse psychology.”
