A Nigerian man has expressed displeasure after he lost his power bank at a popular restaurant.
He was shocked to discover through CCTV footage that it had been stolen by a lady who concealed it inside her food pack.
The incident was shared by the man on the social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter.
In his post, he recounted how he had visited the popular eatery, Kilimanjaro, and mistakenly left his power bank on the counter while purchasing food.
Upon realizing it was missing, he returned to the restaurant and asked the manager for help.
The manager agreed to review the CCTV footage, which revealed the surprising truth: a lady who had also come to buy food discreetly wrapped the power bank in her takeaway pack before leaving.
Sharing the footage and his experience online, he wrote:
“Today at Kilimanjaro, I forgot my power bank at the counter after paying. I went back after eating and it was missing.”
“I called on the manager, asked him to replay the CCTV—only to see that a matured babe wrapped it inside her food pack and left with it. What’s wrong with people?”

@SimoncoleB: “So unfortunate,na person girlfriend be this. This is shameful .This same type will say I don’t date broke guys but na thief she be. It will cost you more than the amount of the power bank to get it back using the police. All we can do is retweet so other influencers and people on social media can see her and probably recognise her. I think that the power bank is gone for good..”
