However, in a video posted by Odogwu Ten Five, he brought out a lot of coins from a bag saying he would like to use it to pay.
However, the spa attendant was quickly taken aback by the suggestion because coins are no longer popular.
It is hard to find a part of Nigeria where coins are still in use, but Odogwu Ten Five seems to have them in large quantities.
In the video, Odogwu said he was going to pay N8,000 and that he had the money in coins, a situation that didn’t resonate well with the spa attendant.
She was angered and insisted that she was not going to accept it. Another lady who a superior emerged and also said the spa don’t accept coins.

She insisted the spa should be given paper currency or Odogwu should pay them with a transfer.
Odogwu captioned the video:
“Just when I thought its A day of pure pampering and serenity for me at a Spa in the city of Ibadan but @citylux_spa felt it’s right to reject the Nigeria currency. I will not let this slide at all.”

Bank rewards Nigerian woman for her honesty
In a related story reported by TheTalk.NG, Zenith Bank Plc has appreciated a Nigerian woman who reported a problematic transaction to the bank.
The woman sent N2.5 million to someone and the money did not leave her account but the person apparently got credited.
After some days, she reported the transaction to the bank and this prompted Zenith Bank to give her a bottle of wine.
