I saw this picture on a Facebook post and everyone commenting on it had different perspectives about it. So I have decided to share it here and seek your opinions about it my fellow Nlanders.


Who failed this young beggar? Is it the Government, the society or his Parents??.

The government, the society and the parents

All the almajiri children begging in the north, who failed them too?

The government failed them

Not every is destined to be rich but we all don't pray to find ourselves in situations like his.....just be thankful you are priveledged to have what you have today.

Who failed the boy? I can't judge that

You have to realize that there will always be situations like this

Don’t blame anyone
Just try and make ur life as comfortable as you can

Cus even wealth have levels

Those people you think that are rich have people they answer to.

Let's learn to take responsibilities.

The parents failed the child. They didn't make proper decision based on economic realities to know that they can't afford to raise a child.

The government didn't change after the child was born, society didn't change over night.

The parents knew the failure of government & society, yet they chose to have the child, so we can start this debate

His parent failed him First. Reason behind the failure can now be trail to the Governments. No one should wrongly accuse Government, Government isn't the one that ask parent to beget more than they can cater for. Islam frown at this as well (leaving your wards uncatered for toBEG)

The kind of the world he was born into failed him, what we have is not even close to an ideal society, not just Nigeria but all over the world
