In a post shared via Instagram on Tuesday, the actress — popularly known as the Queen Mother — disclosed that the EFCC reached out to her while she was abroad.
The actress acknowledged being aware that defacing the naira is an offense but claimed she was unaware that spraying other currencies, such as the dollar, was also prohibited.
“I was shown videos from the wedding where guests were spraying money. I explained that I thought only the abuse or mutilation of the naira was prohibited,” she said.
Ojo further explained that EFCC officials clarified the law, informing her that spraying any currency on individuals at events goes against financial regulations.
As a result, she appealed to Nigerians to avoid such practices at social gatherings to stay within the bounds of the law.
