A popular Lagos street beggar, widely known as the "Lekki street boy," has sparked reactions online after revealing the huge amount of money he allegedly spends just to gain access to wealthy individuals and celebrities to beg for money.
According to him, begging in high-end locations is not for the poor, as he often spends massive sums daily just to get close to influential people. In his words:
"Do you know how much I spend just to beg every day?
Yesterday alone, I spent N250k. I wanted to beg someone inside a club, so I had to buy a shot of Azul for N70k, and I bought three.
