Papaya Ex Offers N700k Reward As iPhone Goes Missing At Arinzo Premiere

 

OpenLife reports that Nigerian socialite and influencer Papaya Ex is seeking urgent public assistance after misplacing her phone during a high-profile movie premiere. The incident occurred at Arinzo’s film premiere on Sunday, where her personal assistant reportedly lost the device.

The missing item is a gold iPhone 16 Pro Max, secured in a pink case. The influencer has offered a cash reward of N700,000 for anyone who helps recover it or provides credible information regarding its location.

“I have a 700k reward for anyone who finds/sees or provides her phone—got misplaced at Arinzo’s premiere, 29th March. My heart is shattered; it’s such an unfortunate situation. I haven’t seen my phone.

Please help! Repost! Please! My work, my everything,” Papaya Ex wrote on Instagram.
She also pleaded with whoever has the phone not to tamper with it, highlighting the importance of the data it contains.

“Please don’t wipe my phone. I use Almighty to beg you. iPhone 16 Pro Max, Gold colour. Pink case. God, please help me. Oh damn,” she added.
The socialite explained that the mishap was due to her assistant becoming distracted during the event.

“I have never misplaced a phone at an event before; my p.a just messed me up. She got carried away at Arinzo’s premiere on the 29th of March, around 11pm – 12am. Please, if you’re with it, show me video evidence with a fake page. Please don’t be scared. I swear on the Kaaba, I’ll give you 700k,” she stated.

The appeal has drawn significant attention online, with fans and followers resharing the post in hopes of aiding its recovery.

Papaya Ex’s experience echoes a recurring issue among celebrities; in 2024, actress Georgina Ibeh also lost her Samsung Fold phone at a premiere hosted by Toyin Abraham, admitting that the loss affected her mood despite continuing to promote the film.
