Aman has stirred reactions on social media after expressing disappointment over the food his children reportedly brought home from their school’s graduation party despite paying ₦12,000 for the celebration.
According to the man, the payment covered two children attending the event.
However, he claimed they returned home with only two plates of rice, a very small portion of meat and no drinks or souvenirs, leaving him frustrated.
He suggested that the quantity and quality of the food did not reflect the amount parents were asked to pay, prompting him to share his experience online.
Parent questions value for money
The man said, “This meat no even reach ₦100.”
He maintained that he expected a better experience for the children after paying what he considered a substantial fee for the graduation party.
He also noted that there were no drinks or gifts included in what the children brought home.
His complaint quickly attracted attention, with many parents weighing in on the growing cost of school events and whether families receive value for the money they contribute.
Social media users share mixed reactions
The post has generated mixed reactions online, with some users sympathising with the father’s disappointment and agreeing that school celebrations have become unnecessarily expensive.
Others argued that graduation party fees often cover venue decoration, entertainment, logistics and other expenses beyond the food served to pupils.
The discussion has continued across social media, with many parents calling for greater transparency from schools regarding graduation party charges and how such funds are spent.
