A video making rounds online captures the moment Nigerian singer, Clay, halted her performance to reprimand a kid who took her money.
Clay was performing American singer, Lil Nas X’s hit song “Old Town Road” by a beach side in Lagos when two kids on a scooter passed in front of her.
However, one of the children turned back and went to pick up the money that had been donated by some of those watching her perform.
Without mincing words, the singer stopped mid-performance and told the boy to drop her money, which elicited laughter from the audience.
The video has stirred mixed reactions online as some netizens were amused by Clay’s reaction while others criticized the boy for taking money that doesn’t belong to him.
