A video has emerged of Nigerian singer Wande Coal confronting a group of young men begging him for money at the airport in Lagos.
In the footage, Wande Coal tells the boys to “Fall Back!!” and reminds them that he too has a humble background, saying “I be street boy like you nah.” He then continues on his way, leaving the beggars behind.
The incident has sparked a mixed reaction online, with some commending Wande Coal for his assertiveness and others criticizing his response as insensitive.
The encounter highlights the challenges of navigating fame, wealth, and social expectations in the public eye.
