In what has been popularly described as weird and out of ordinary, an automobile mechanic apprentice, simply identified as Chidike, who was said to have recently completed his (mechanic) training has been ‘bathed’ with condemned engine oil during his graduation ceremony.
The graduation ceremony, which reportedly happened over the weekend, was captured in a video that has gone viral on social media.
The 23-second video shows individuals believed to be colleagues of the graduating mechanic pouring dirty engine oil on him as he bent on his knees at the venue, while his family members, relatives, and friends who attended the graduation ceremony watched from under the canopy.
The visibly dirty engine oil stored in gallons was emptied all over his body as he gently scrubbed off those that drenched his dead face, including his nose, eyes, ears, mouth, and other part of his body, which turned black as a result of the saturation.
Although the full identity of the graduating mechanic and where the incident happened could not be ascertained as at the time of filing this report, a source and social media user who claimed to know about the incident, said it happened over the weekend at Nnewi, the automobile hub of Anambra State, further revealing that the mechanic’s name is Chidike.
“This happened this weekend in Nnewi. His name is Chidike. Congrats bro. You go make am,” Malizu P Joyce, wrote on social media in reaction to the video.
The video has also sparked off a chain reactions and counter-reactions from other social media users, as many air their views thereon.
