I've never think of it but I think it's not in their culture to beg. Igbo's can't beg they're more of entrepreneur s unlike our lazy Yoruba's and Hausa's idly roaming the street. Some able bodied Yoruba's have even taken it as their profession.


P.S. I'm a Yoruba o so don't quote me.

Of course. They are all over the place. Just that their modus operandi differs from the Hausa and Yorubas beggars. They don't do it foolishly like the Hausa and Yorubas who will wear dirty clothes, close their eyes and openly beg under the hot sun. The Igbo beggar is a corporate one. He can even put on a suit and a tie, approach you with photographs of a child with different shades of tumor. He tells you the child is in hospital and the doctors are asking for half million for the operation. I tell you, the time it takes the Hausa beggar to make a hundred naira, this Igbo beggar is already counting tens of thousand.

There are beggars that are Igbo. They're few and they're mostly people that are handicapped and diseased; the blind,the lame etc. There are beggars among all tribes in Nigeria, the difference is that some tribes make it a way of life or a sacred religious duty.

Who cares if you are Yoruba or Gogobiri?
That is the number one method to catch Impostors-
After finishing all the lies and rubbish they want to type, they’lll be like: Mind you, I am from ______ (Insert tribe name here), Therefore what I am saying must be fact.
