Daniel Pondei, NDDC MD faints Daniel Pondei, NDDC MD faints

Nigerians have reacted to a viral video showing how NDDC MD, Daniel Pondei, fainted during a probe by a panel of the House of Representatives on Monday.

Pondei who fainted while fielding questions from the panel was immediately revived and ferried out of the venue where the panel sat.

In reaction to the drama, Nigerians on social media likened it to what's obtainable in the Nollywood movie industry.

Below are some reactions gathered by MyNigeria.com.

@Renoomokri wrote: "Maybe the NDDC MD was auditioning for #BBNaija? I‘m a long-distance runner. I have seen people faint. No one faints and then puts up his hand to stop the person resuscitating him. When I said “under General @MBuhari corruption is official”, this is what I meant!".

@iSlimfit wrote: "This is not Nollywood, this is a scene from the House of Reps Committee Interrogation of the NDDC MD, Kemebradikumo Pondei".

@retweets_9ja wrote: "Nigerian leaders are jokes and embarrassment to us as a nation, considering the level of intellects we have produced both home and abroad. But during elections, we will prefer to elect comedians, imagine NDDC MD playing with our intelligence on national tv".

@jeffphilips wrote: "If not for coronavirus, the NDDC MD will be asking for treatment abroad tomorrow....COVID-19 is not all gloomy for us as a country, nobody on trial has applied for foreign treatment since Feb, none of them has died, even our president is getting fresher with just Aso Rock massage".

@_stephhani wrote: "They asked the NDDC MD what he did with 73 billion and you expect him not to faint".

@MeekyMercy wrote: "NDDC MD slumps under intense interrogation. Why does "Sickness" always strike them when it is time to account for their roles in corruption?".
