A light-hearted domestic moment has sparked laughter across social media after a man reportedly caught his wife secretly drinking a bottle of 5 Alive inside the toilet during fasting hours.
According to the viral account, the incident happened during a religious fast when food and drinks were meant to be avoided until later in the day.
The husband allegedly became suspicious after noticing his wife spending longer than usual in the bathroom.
Caught during fasting hours
The situation reportedly unfolded when the man entered the toilet area and discovered his wife quietly enjoying a chilled bottle of 5 Alive.
Shocked by the timing, he questioned why she was drinking during the fast, especially in a concealed location.
The unexpected discovery instantly turned a private household moment into a trending topic after it was shared online.
‘Fasting department is closed’ defence
Rather than denying the act, the woman allegedly responded with what many described as an “emergency explanation.” She reportedly told her husband that the “fasting department” was temporarily shut down due to her monthly period, which she jokingly referred to as a “subscription.”
Her quick response reportedly disarmed the situation, turning what could have been a serious argument into a humorous exchange.
Social media reacts
Nigerians on social media quickly seized on the story, with many praising the woman’s quick wit while others joked about the lengths people go to survive fasting periods.
Some users described the explanation as “legendary,” while others said it perfectly captured everyday marriage humour.
Although the story remains unverified, it has continued to circulate online, offering comic relief and sparking playful conversations about fasting, marriage, and honesty at home.
