The X user, @LaNRaY_SHeeRan, explained that he was completely broke during the COVID-19 lockdown when the musical group began distributing money on the microblogging platform. After repeatedly trying without success, he decided to change his strategy to match the pattern of those who were winning the cash.

In his words: "Covid 19, I was broke. I remember P-Square was doing a giveaway on Twitter. I dropped my acc number several times. I wasn't picked then I noticed a pattern in people he picked. He was legit picking people with the saddest stories, one said his parents were late and he is the one taking care of his kid sisters. Psquare picked him. I followed the pattern I tweeted my mum was late and my deadbeat dad abandoned me and my sister. I copied and pasted on every comment, I wasn't picked. Then I asked the guy he picked that lost his parents to share some funds cos I assumed it was large, then he was like 'bro na 5k hin send o' with a screenshot. Bro my headloss that day. I called my dad deadbeat cos of 5k? Poverty no good o."
