Piggyvest said if Ilebaye invests N60 million in the bank, they would guarantee her over N7.5 million as a return on investment over a period of one year. Piggyvest said this was more than 12% interest.
But while quoting the tweet, another financial institution, Fairmoney, said they could offer Ilebaye more interest if she saved half of the BBNaija prize money with them.
Fairmoney said they will offer her over N12.5 million as interest, which is 23% for a year.
