There’s a rumour on Twitter NG that states that fans of Teddy A, the latest evicted housemate from the Big Brother Naija are donating the sum of ₦5,000 each to sum up the amount he would have gotten if he won the reality show ₦45,000,000.
A Twitter account owner, Queen of Mean, with Twitter handle @H3rRoyalDopenez, had tweeted: “Awww, Teddy A’s fans are donating 5k each to make 25 m for him. That’s so sweeeeet.”
But the amount that will be raised, based on Teddy A’s fan base is as controversial as the claim.
Here are some of the responses:
.. the 5k wey them for use vote for am to collect 45mill.. it's ok o. Goodluck to Teddy a, wit or without money he will surely get enough endorsements. There are pple who dont ve food to eat, suffering, u wan give person wey be celebrity n already who don blow.

While to some the idea is bad:
This is by far the most foolish thing I've heard or seen on Twitter. Donating money for someone who (if he's smart) may end up being richer than all them. This is the height of misplaced priorities, and the youth will be making noise about how our politicians misuse funds

Abi o. Do we know how many millions of Naira people used to vote and it still didn't count? If He was still in the house doesnt mean He will win so its better the money for votes is given to him jare????

Others are of the view that his House lover, Bambam, should also have the same privilege:
???????????????????? kai… naija .. so what about Bambam now??? Why must women always be kicked to the side in all these things?

Bambam needs that money more than teddy A .. she might be homeless as we speak, her parents and church ppl may have cancelled her

Maybe BamBam's fans should do that for her
— Queen Of Mean (@H3rRoyalDopenez) April 2, 2018
I suggested that 4 bambam too I wish pple can turn up 4 her.
— O A. (@OgochukwuAnast1) April 2, 2018
Maybe if her own fans could do that for her too cos I see some people don't want that

While some would-be donors don’t know the account details, someone provided what s/he claims to be the account number:
What's the account number for the 5k?

This the account number 0007296621 Diamondbank

Yet others see the entire idea as a joke:
If they used that 5k each to vote for him he'd still be in the house. Let them hush with the fake sh!t.
