In the now-viral video, Henshaw showcased herself enjoying a meal while subtly suggesting how she might react when someone asks her for financial assistance.
“Pls go and queue for your palliative🙄🙄😒” she captioned the video.
The clip immediately caught the attention of a tweep, who quickly slammed the actress for her apparent insensitivity towards the struggles many Nigerians face.
“You see, this is a problem. Everytime y’all sore losers lose, you go for the poor. The same poor you conveniently claim to be fighting for when it suits you.

In response to the post, Henshaw stated that she was unperturbed about the reactions to her post.
“🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I just came back online to see that my video pain some people…. Eyasaaaa!!! IDGAF🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪,” she wrote.
