Teni issues strong warning to those constantly begging her for money
Afrobeats sensation Teni has delivered a firm message to those who always beg her for money, urging them to “fear God.”
Taking to her Instagram on March 19, 2024, the singer addressed what she humorously dubbed the “Beggars Association,” admonishing them to improve their approach and refrain from constant begging.
“Beggars Association of Nigeria, who be una president? I need to talk to your president because Una no get conscience again, Una no fear God,” she began.
She continued, “You go beg pesin for money 3 days ago, come back again two days later to ask again. Am I your mother or father? Did they write your name on my head? Una no dey fear God? Fear God o, beggars association, it’s not good.”
Teni expressed frustration over the lack of consideration for her own well-being among those who frequently solicit money from her. She highlighted their insensitivity by noting that they have even begun requesting donations in currencies other than the Nigerian naira.
She said, “They would call and not even ask ‘how you dey, how’s your life, are you okay?’. They don’t care. Now they don’t even ask for naira again o, na USD and pounds they ask for. Be careful o, even God sef you go ask am and he go tell you make you wait. I’m not God, we’re all human o!”
