A Nigerian man sparked discussions when he shared a photo of a couple labeled as deceased by a loan app after they defaulted on loan repayment.

The post was captioned: “All because they couldn’t pay back their loan, see what a loan company did.”

The post displays an edited photo of a couple believed to have received money in the form of a loan from an unnamed loan company.

The photo includes the names of the couple and other information. The loan company added that they have been marked as deceased with a burial date set for 30/4/2024.

This action was taken by the loan app as the couple reportedly refused to repay their loan before the due date.

Additionally, there is a short note or description which reads: “We, the family of Mr. and Mrs. (Dr. Henry, NGASI), happily announce the passing of the couple. They are survived by only one daughter, she’ll be raped to death”

The post captured the attention of social media users, who immediately flooded the comment section to share their thoughts.
