Nigerian radio host Do2dtun expressed his concerns about the current economic difficulties and how they have significantly impacted the act of begging.
In an Instagram post, he highlighted the challenges of begging, stating that it now requires exceptional grace and additional skills.
He attributed this difficulty to the struggling economy, which has already predetermined the methods and approaches used in begging.
“Begging is now very hard. You will need grace and extra skill. The economy affected begging too. All the format don cast”.
In a different social media post, he encouraged people to acquire a skill because education alone is insufficient.
He emphasized that one must find their own opportunities rather than waiting for someone else to provide them.
In another tweet, he observed how even the most affordable meal has become costly and advised his supporters to eat with intention and avoid wasting food.
“Now it’s time to develop a skill as you get an education. You need both how. Nobody will give you the barber chair now o! Find your own.
The cheapest meal is now expensive. Eat with a purpose.
Don’t waste food. Food is Gold now”.
