TikToker Murja Kunya Jailed 6 Months Or N50000 Option For Alleged Naira Abuse

Murja Ibrahim Kunya, a TikTok influencer from Kano, has been sentenced to six months in prison for Naira abuse. The Federal High Court in Kano found her guilty of violating Section 21(1) of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) Act, 2007, which prohibits the mutilation and abuse of the Nigerian currency.


A viral video recorded on December 28, 2023, showed Kunya dancing, spraying, and trampling on Naira notes in a hotel room. She was initially arrested in January 2025 but went into hiding to evade trial before being rearrested on March 16, 2025.

Justice Simone Amobeda sentenced her to six months imprisonment with an option of a ₦50,000 fine. Additionally, the court appointed her as an Ambassador for the EFCC and CBN, requiring her to use her social media influence to educate followers on the importance of respecting the Nigerian currency.

  2. Good judgement. At least she'd easily pay the 50k fine and then use her platform to educate people to stop abusing the Naira.
