Sharp woman. Eye dey see figures like calculator.
One Friday evening, guy run come meet her:
`"Aunty abeg send 50k. Network bad for my bank app."`
Mama Nkechi send am. Guy collect cash, thank her, waka go.
10 minutes later, another alert: *+50k*.
Then another: *+50k*.
Then another: *+50k*.
4 alerts total. 200k.
Mama Nkechi call the guy: `"Bros I send you 200k by mistake o."`
Guy laugh: `"Aunty you sure? Check well."`
Then he block her.
Mama Nkechi no cry. She no curse.
She go bank Monday, print statement, go police station.
Trace am. The guy use fake ID to open account.
2 weeks later, police call her: `"We don catch am.

They return her 200k. Plus the bank add 25k compensation.
Since that day, Mama Nkechi get new rule:
