A UK-based Nigerian woman publicly accused a man of refusing to repay a £1,500 loan from 2022—despite partial repayment and failed mediation—leading to a viral confrontation video and renewed debate on trust and lending in the diaspora.
A Nigerian woman living in the UK has taken to social media to publicly accuse a fellow Nigerian man of refusing to repay a £1,500 loan she gave him in 2022.
Posting under the handle @PrincessUfuoma_, the woman shared a video of the accused—identified as Ajisafe Laolu Cornelius, also known as “Ola of Pompey”—claiming he borrowed the money for school fees but has since ignored her repeated efforts to recover it.
“Give me my money you are owing me since 2022 for school fees. As you no respect friendship, owe me till 2025. Mutuals have spoken to you but no result,” she wrote.
According to Ufuoma, multiple mutual friends have tried to intervene, but the man has refused to engage or repay the full amount. Frustrated by his silence, she decided to go public with the matter.
Alleged Intimidation After Going Public
Shortly after making the issue public, Ufuoma updated her followers, claiming the man showed up at her residence to threaten her. She said he had already repaid £1,000, leaving a balance of £500, but instead of settling the remaining amount, he allegedly tried to intimidate her.
“£500 is what is left now… PAY ME UP! Don’t come to my house to threaten me.”
She also posted a video of the confrontation, explaining it was the only footage she managed to capture, as her phone was on a table during the encounter.
“Guys see the video of him coming to threaten me. This is the only video I could quickly get because my phone was on my table. My mum was even shocked!”
In the video, the man can be heard saying:
“Do your worst. Collect it from your Twitter people.”
Social Media Reactions
The incident has sparked widespread discussion on social media, with many users criticizing the man’s actions and others warning about the risks of lending money without formal agreements. Here are some reactions:
- @olajideobe: “Why is it that people who tag cities to their names always end up being the biggest scammers? When you see someone named ‘Ola of something,’ just run!”
- @Saodami1: “At least she didn’t call him a scammer. He’s owing. I hope he pays her back. This is not good.”
- @MarquizDejavex: “This video could make you lose your money and pay damages. You’re accusing someone of theft without proper evidence.”
- @Blessing_Olivi: “Please, which app did she use to make this video with music? Someone is owing me too—let me do mine.”
- @unlcetalkytalky: “Ajisafe Laolu, they said come and pay your gbese. Ola of puppy or whatever they call you.”
- @bimbolaroyale: “See how someone has ruined their reputation over £1,500. It’s disgraceful. These types of people hurt the image of the Nigerian community abroad.”
- @TeeGraceofPompi: “Thank God I collected my own money after he showed me and my sister shege. He even tried to report me to the police for harassment. Pay your debt, you fraudster.”
