A throwback video featuring the notable billionaire businessman, Femi Otedola, circulating on social media has gained widespread attention. The clip, shared on TikTok by user @bigsamblog, captures Otedola casually riding in a public bus in Lagos without being recognized, even on his birthday.
In the video, Otedola is seen seated in a Molue bus without the usual presence of heavily armed guards, and interestingly, fellow passengers seem oblivious to his identity.
Despite rumors that Otedola had intended to reward anyone recognizing him handsomely, it appears that no one on the bus identified the philanthropist. This gesture was supposedly part of his birthday celebration, as he aimed to give back to society in a unique way.
Various reactions surfaced on social media, showcasing the diverse perspectives of users who came across the video. @ibrahimbolaniyi mentioned, "it was Femi Otedola celebrating his birthday and wanting to bless anyone who recognized him, unfortunately, no one knew it was him."
@Tijani Muritala expressed, "This is a lesson to those with pride that without them, things can't happen. Even Otedola will be sad that despite his wealth, no one recognized him."
@davo opined, "Even if you recognize him, you will never believe he's the one inside a public bus."
