A Nigerian lady, who was seen begging for alms on the streets of Lagos, was discovered to be carrying a fake child in order to gain sympathy from passersby.
A video posted online shows the beggar approaching some persons in a vehicle and asking for assistance while holding a baby.
The passengers were suspicious that the child was not real, so they asked the beggar to show them the child’s face.
The beggar was hesitant, but they insisted on seeing the baby’s face before giving her money.
The beggar then showed them the baby, but was very quick, indicating that what lies beneath is only more clothes.
