 Drama As Beggars Reject Old Currency In Kaduna


January 25, 2023


On Wednesday, a small amount of drama occurred on the well-known Kano-road in Kaduna.


The drama started when a group of beggars turned down some old 1,000 Naira bills that a kind stranger had given to them.


According to our correspondent who witnessed the drama, a young man was approached by three beggars in wheelchairs as he exited a bus.


Realizing they were asking for donations, the man pulled a N1,000 bill out of his wallet and extended it toward the beggar who was the oldest of the three.


The beggars, in an amusing response, turned their wheelchairs around, looked at themselves, and rejected the young man’s offer by moving away from him.


The young man, who introduced himself as Caleb, said to onlookers, “They (beggars) came to me, asking for alms. They rejected what I had on me despite my offering it to them.


The young man explained that despite his best efforts, he only had the older currency notes and was unable to obtain the newer ones.
