Why I ran away, left my date with N69K bill to pay – Man clarifies
A young Nigerian man who left his date stranded with a N69K bill at a restaurant gives shocking reasons for running away without paying.
The date, which seemed like a typical outing at first, turned into a viral saga after the man abruptly exited, leaving his date and her friend to settle the exorbitant bill alone.
According to reports, the man identified as @olayinka.brain on Tiktok had invited his date to a lavish dinner at a high-end restaurant in Lagos.
The two, including a friend each indulged in premium dishes and expensive drinks, racking up a sizable bill. However, just before payment for the meal, the man and his friend excused themselves and ran away.
Minutes passed, then hours, and the man never returned, leaving the woman confused and humiliated. She eventually had to foot the ₦69,000 bill herself, and the incident quickly made its way onto social media.
Feeling the heat from the online backlash, the man eventually took to social media to explain his side of the story.
In a post that has since gone viral, he admitted to leaving his date but claimed there was a reason behind his actions.
“I saw you online and met you; I sent you N10K instead of N500 for transport fare. You didn’t tell me you would come to the date with your friend and I had drank herbs hoping for some fun. We were at the bar, you don’t know my aza balance; you and your friend ordered up to N50K while me and my friend order asun with Hollandia yoghurt and you expect me not to run?” he said partly.
