Social media platforms lit up on Thursday after Nigerian music producer Michael Ajereh, better known as Don Jazzy, gifted a woman N6 million in an unexpected act of generosity.
The giveaway began with a viral prompt on X (formerly Twitter), asking users to tag a celebrity who might give them ¦ 1 million. Adeyemi Adejoke Abidemi, tweeting as #PopoolaJoke4, tagged Don Jazzy, writing, “Make I tag #DONJAZZY. I dey always dream about him. Happy new month sir.”
To her surprise, Don Jazzy responded with “Akant namba.” She shared her GTBank account details and soon after, posted a screenshot showing a ¦ 1 million deposit. “Jesuuuuuusssssssss, this is huge,” she wrote. “Receiving 1 million naira is beyond anything I expected. I’m truly grateful. Your support means the world to me.”
But the surprise didn’t end there. Don Jazzy, having seen that her previous account balance was just ¦ 67.29, added, “Amen ooo. That your akant balance is not healthy. I don add another 5 million. More blessings ma.”
Adeyemi confirmed the additional ¦ 5 million with a second screenshot, and responded, “Oluwa oo. I am deeply grateful for this extraordinary blessing. May the Almighty who used you to lift me reward you beyond measure. May your hands never lack and your generations enjoy divine favour.”
When asked why she had such a low balance, she replied, “None of my accounts get 1 naira, I can screenshot all for you, only GTBank get 67 naira.”
Meanwhile, rising star Crown Uzama, also known as Shallipopi, also joined the giveaway spree. Promoting his new album, he tweeted, “Summer is coming, ready your shorts and bikinis. Don’t forget to take a lil speaker with you in case you wanna jam da Album.”
A fan, Samuel Uchechukwu Ifesinachi (@teslime_dmw), replied, “Summer is coming, still broke as hell. Money to buy speaker no dey.” Shallipopi responded, “Imma send u a million if you promise to get yourself a very big JBL.” The fan promised and shared his account details, soon receiving 1 million, confirmed by a screenshot posted by the artist.
Another fan, Anirah Gabriel (@gabe_the_menace), reminded Shallipopi of a previous conversation from March, where the singer had asked, “How much you fit chop?” and Gabriel had replied, “Shock me papi.” Shallipopi teased back, “Lol u nor talk how much u fit chop nah. You dey do yanga for presido, talk jorr.” Gabriel replied, “Make I see 1 meter from u preside jare,” and received 1 million shortly after.
