‘Let’s postpone Christmas and New Year’ and other Twitter reactions to MMM freeze

Since online Ponzi scheme, MMM, announced on Tuesday that it was freezing the accounts of its members for one month, the social media has been charged with comments, particularly from those against the scheme.

From suggesting Christmas should be postponed to January and asking if Buhari or Jonathan be blamed for the sudden freeze, here’s how Nigerians are responding:

With the new development from MMM Nigeria, we wud like to shift our christmas to January.😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

When are we going to start blaming Buhari, so he can blame GEJ for MMM Nigeria freezing accounts of Nigerians?

I was drinking Hollandia yoghurt when someone called me to say that MMM has been frozen. Oboy, the Hollandia started testing like Alomo.

Any business named 'Moku, Mogbe, Modaran' MMM was always going to crash, like all Ponzi schemes. My condolences to those who lost money.

Recession alone is bad
Recession + no MMM Nigeria + Christmas.
Even albert einstein can't solve this.

Since MMM Nigeria has crashed, I think investing in casket and coffin business will make sense… #RIP #MMM

I understand the risk. It's boldy written on the MMM Nigeria website. I understand the risk.
