Some Nigerian celebrities like Mercy Eke, Alex Unusual, Daddy Freeze and others have reacted to a viral video of a man crying profusely and begging while his vehicle was being auctioned.
Applesbite reports that the Lagos State Government through its Ministry of Justice and The State Taskforce on Thursday, organized the public auction of over 134 abandoned and forfeited vehicles, at Lagos State Task Force’ headquarters, Alausa, Ikeja.
In the video making the rounds online, a young man who was faced with the reality of permanently losing his vehicle broke down in tears while he was being dragged out of the scene by security personnel.
This sparked reactions from Mercy Eke who offered to help the man, with other celebrities also expressing displeasure over the car auctioning.
