Femi explains why he returned the $14k

Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that Akinola Femi had opened up about why he returned the $14k (over N21 million) a foreign crypto trader sent to him.

In a new video, Femi explained how the white man mistakenly sent him the money. Femi said he had won $100 (over N150k) worth of Solana from the foreign crypto trader.

In an attempt to credit Femi his giveaway prize, the foreigner mistakenly sent $14k (over N21 million). The white man immediately messaged Femi to notify him about the erroneous transfer and the Nigerian youth did not disappoint.
