Man says beggar tried to do rituals
The man, who took to the X app to share his story under the handle @somtodeyforyou, recounted how the beggar had returned his money months after he had given it to her.
He claimed that the beggar had attempted to use the money for ritual purposes, but her plan backfired and failed to yield the desired results.
He was shocked and confused by her behaviour when she ran up to him on the road months later, and she eventually confessed that she had used the money he gave her for ritual purposes.
The beggar said she had been searching for him everywhere, looking for a way to return the money and possibly undo the perceived harm.
The man claimed that the beggar’s actions were part of a larger scheme, where women would approach unsuspecting victims, claiming they needed money for transport or other necessities, only to use the money for ritual purposes.
In his words:
“I ain’t helping no body coz the last time I did I almost got used. The beggar returned my money after months looking for me shouting “e no work, e no work”. She been use the money wey I give do rituals but e no work. So she been dey find me since. Na all these ladies wey go tell person say dem no get transport so you go help me with small change that kin thing.”

Tagmemics said:
“Was looking for this comment. A reliable pos guy told me they caught someone who was buying money from beggars and using it for rituals. I find it hard to give since then but I started giving again because sometimes I can’t bear not helping those who might really need it.”

“Just pray on it and give whenever you want to. Their plans won’t work. I will do same hearing this from now. One can’t help but give.”

“Watch ignorant people saying it’s lie. The world is so deep and cruel. That people are doing many things to make it.”
Rachael Ngwuli added:
“Hmmmmm I’ve seen something similar. A beggar at ikeja bridge exchange contact with a guy who obviously looked like a Yahoo guy I heard him tell the beggar he’ll pay him well. Things are happening truly but we shouldn’t stop showing kindness all we must do is pray always.”
