A young man has sparked widespread conversation on social media after dramatically showing up at his ex-girlfriend’s home with a group of friends to retrieve every single gift he had ever purchased for her during their relationship.
The incident, captured in a viral video and shared on X (formerly Twitter) by user @TENIOLA, shows the man arriving at what appears to be the lady’s residence. In the footage, he and his friends are seen packing out multiple items, including furniture, household appliances, and other personal effects, loading everything into the vehicles they brought along.
As the chaotic scene unfolded, the ex-girlfriend could be heard shouting in frustration and regret, vowing never to date a “Yahoo boy” again. Her emotional outburst echoed through the background as the men continued removing items from the building.
The tension in the air was heightened by background voices remarking, “Relationship na do or die affair,” emphasizing that being in a relationship is not a compulsory commitment and should not involve force or bitterness.
The video has since triggered a flood of mixed reactions from Nigerians. Many viewers found the entire episode both dramatic and humorous, with one user commenting, “If the relationship ends, the gifts should end too?” Others, however, criticized the man’s behaviour, describing it as “petty,” “vindictive,” and “shameful.”
Despite the criticism, some people supported his actions, arguing that if he felt used or disrespected, reclaiming his property was within his rights. One supporter wrote, “If she wasted his time, let him collect his things. Not all heartbreaks come cheap.”
The trending video has reignited a long-standing debate among Nigerians: Should gifts given during a relationship be returned after a breakup? While some insist that a gift is a gift and should remain with the receiver, others believe that once love ends, so should the benefits that came with it.
As opinions continue to divide, one thing is undeniable — this breakup drama has quickly become one of the most discussed social media spectacles of the moment.
