Super Eagles striker Victor Boniface turned a lighthearted troll into a massive act of generosity, sending N1 million to a fan who joked about his recent mental health post.

It started when Boniface tweeted about battling depression.

A user quipped, “Transfer your money before depression kee you,” prompting Boniface to reply, “How much?” The fan said N250K—and Boniface promptly wired N1M instead, leaving social media buzzing.

Replies exploded with humour: fans prayed for “similar grace,” joked about trolling celebs for cash, and invoked divine favour like “Na my own turn next.”
