Two corporate beggars inside the campus of yabatech, one was coming from the back gate and the other from the front gate, the first called to the second and their conversation
First Beggar: Excuse me Sir, Can I have some minute of your time, (The second beggar who was curious about what the First Beggar wants to say,Second Beggar: Ok, how can I help you?
First Beggar: Do you understand Yoruba language?
Second Beggar: Beeni (Yes)
First Beggar: Jo se mo le ri #50 lowo e, mo fe sare de yaba (please can I get #50 from you, I want to use as transport fare to Yaba)
Second Beggar: Weere, Oya tete beere si nsare lo yaba, ibe le mi na ti n bo, ba ya wa pade e lo mi lona (Madman, you better start running to Yaba, may be you will meet another person to dupe, Corporate Beggar)
Weeks after the second beggar meet with the First Beggar but did not recognize him, this time it was the second beggar begging. At the front gate entrance of Yabatech
