Beggars give out their money; video drops capturing their rare kindness
- An experiment carried by Legit TV crew has beggars giving out of the paltry sum they had saved for their own survival
- One of the less privileged who did not mind parting with her money said that she has not made anything all-day
- As a reward for their rare hearts of gold, they were given some money in addition to their limited resources
Our manifesto: This is what YEN.com.gh believes in
The paradoxical saying that the better is blessed by the less may be true after all. In an experiment video, Legit TV went out to see how kind people who depend on us could be with their little resources.
The first beggar Legit TV anchor, Temitope Popoola Olaiya, met was a woman who sat on the bare floor, holding onto a nylon bag at Berger axis of Lagos state.
When she was asked if she could spare some money, the woman kindly dipped her hand into her bag and handed Temitope a naira note.
In response to her act of kindness, our correspondent gave her money instead. The situation was, however, different with another beggar who said she could not understand what was being said in the English language.
Another also said she has not been given any money and as such does not have anything to give. A third request had a woman graciously giving out money without considering that the person asking for it is better of.
Watch the short video below:
The video perhaps teaches everyone that you really do not need much to serve as a succour to those who need you.
Meanwhile, YEN.com.gh earlier reported that Big Brother Naija (BBNaija) reality star, Khloe, took to social media to lambast fans who constantly ask her for money or help.
In a post shared by Ijeomadaisy on Instagram, the entrepreneur on her Snapchat lamented about entitled online beggars especially those who message her privately to beg for money.
Stating that she does not work for anyone, the reality star asked anyone who does not like her anymore because of her outburst to unfollow her as she would not be doing giveaways anymore.
