This incident has since gained significant attention on social media, particularly X (formerly Twitter), where a video of the event has gone viral.

@Luckyflows: “It’s alarming to see a young man go through such disgrace! What responsibilities does he have that led to this?”
@Hanuoluwa02: “I remember when I used my grandma’s ₦25,000 to place a bet. I was too scared to go home and face her afterward!”
@Isotope_52: “After they took his clothes, they shouldn’t have taken his bet slip too. If it were me, I’d take my bet slip home, even if it means causing trouble.”
@OchubaUgo: “The day I did that to someone, I didn’t even look him in the face. I just stripped him down to his boxers.”
@ItzRealcollins: “As I said before, many newcomers think they’ll win big in betting. I’ve been doing this since the days of Nairabet, and trust me, you’ll likely lose your money.”
@Rasheedmomoh4: “Lol, bro thought he could win and settle the debt! Unreal!”
