Lady shares mindblowing artefacts found at her friend's family house



A lady has taken to twitter to narrate her insightful experience at her friend’s family house.

According to the user identified as @Bodasheeee, she followed her friend to his family house yesterday. His dad passed away some years ago, but his room and belongings were left untouched.

Her friend was searching for an important document which led them into his dad’s room.

She said all the artefacts found there took her back in time.

@Bodasheeee claimed that before yesterday, she had never seen Biafran notes before and some other old Nigerian currencies.

See some of the artefacts below;
