Nigerian TikTok star Murja Kunya has been sentenced to six months in jail for 'spraying' naira cash notes in a viral video, a party custom that's a criminal offence in Nigeria. A court in Kano found her guilty under a 2007 law banning currency abuse, increasingly enforced by the anti-graft agency EFCC. Known for her controversial content, Kunya has repeatedly clashed with authorities, including the Islamic Hisbah police. As part of her sentence, she must now use her large online following to campaign against naira abuse.
