Although, the burial of late Justus Esiri has successfully come and gone, the stupendous spending by spraying money in large notes into the crowd by Ibori’s Associate and self acclaimed billionair, Chief Ayiri Emami would ever remain in the memory of those who witnessed the event described as show of shame
The side attraction created by Ayiri almost disrupted the occasion attended by dignitaries from all walk of lives as his action created stampede and pandemonium which sent unsuspecting visitors running for safety thinking something unusual was happening, not knowing that Ayiri was in a new quest of misusing the stolen funds of former Governor James Ibori allegedly kept under his possession for safe keeping.
At the burial ceremony, Emami Ayiri, was reported thowing bundles of N1000 notes on people who came to sympathize with the family of the deceased actor.
The money which the self acclaimed Billionaire business man threw into the crowd amounted to N7 Million as sympathises got between N100, 000- 400,000.
His actions was said to have almost caused a stampede as the crowd rushed the monies he threw.
The situation was however controlled by the Anti Bomb and Terrorism Policemen at the event as they used whip to flog those rushing for a grab.
At the end of his jamboree, so many Deltans got seriously wounded even those who didn’t drag for money when he was messing up.
Ayiri’s action caused tension and was an embarrassment to the Federal Republic of Nigeria, an abuse of our legal tender, an embarrassment to his person and his community.
This is not the first time he is doing a thing of this nature as he throws the country’s currency in any city he visits.
