Nigerian singer, Peter Okoye of PSquare, has blasted online beggars in a long rant on his Twitter page.

It all started when a bold young man, Prince Nerrow, on Twitter, demanded N500,000 from numerous top celebrities such as Davido, Femi Otedola, Naira Marley, Dangote and more, Igbere TV reports.

The online beggar didn’t just stop there, he also gave them an ultimatum as he demanded the money before 2022.

In reaction to the beggar’s demand, Peter called out people who do the same online and noted that it was an irritating act as he advised them to stop.

According to the singer, posts like Nerrow’s own is what online fraudsters usually looked out for because they see how desperate the person is for giveaways.

Peter then taunted people who fell for scams disguised as giveaways where they are told to pay an amount of money to reclaim more money as their prize.

The singer wrote: “It’s like me saying I am doing giveaway of N100k each but you have to send me N30k first to receive the N100k.”

Depends on where the poster is coming from, begging is not really a crime. A hungry man will never stop asking for food. The gullibility of falling prey to fraudster is what he should condemned and not begging in its entirety.

Guess online begging was not irritating then when this was shared across social medias
