Anthonia celebrated her birthday over the weekend and was honored by her husband and their congregation during the church service on Sunday, October 29.
However, the clergyman went the extra mile to make his wife’s birthday special and memorable by surprising her with a jaw-dropping cash gift.
A video shared online shows the moment he gave her the key to the safe in his office and asked her to go and open it, stating that everything in it is hers.
After she opened the safe, she found bundles of N1,000 notes to the tune of N55 million. The sheer volume of the money left her overwhelmed and caused her to fall to the ground in shock.

As expected, the clergyman’s huge gift to his wife has sparked mixed reactions online, with many sharing their undiluted opinions about it.
