The clip has drawn mixed responses from Nigerians, with some questioning the propriety of such public display by a serving minister at a time when the country is grappling with prolonged electricity supply challenges. Others, however, argue that Adelabu has the right to enjoy the proceeds of his legitimate earnings.

The minister has yet to make an official comment on the viral video as of the time of filing this report.
