The clip showed a well-maintained compound with three beautifully lit houses, yet devoid of visitors.
The emotional son lamented that even the recent fuel price hike, which would normally draw people to their doorstep to charge their phones, had failed to bring anyone to their home.
Speaking on the reason behind it, he spoke about the "ritualist" tag that had been unfairly attached to his family.
"Even as fuel cost has increased, my village people have refused to come and charge their phones in our house because they are calling us ritualist," he said in the video.
