15-Year-Old Boy Caught Trying To Use His Mother For Money Rituals

A video of a 15-year-old boy trying to use his mother and siblings for money rituals has gone viral on the internet, and people have had different reactions to it.

Some people think the young boy's actions were caused by his extreme poverty, but I disagree. I think a boy his age would only think about money rituals if he was very greedy.

This has nothing to do with being poor. Young boys and girls want to spend money like the famous people they see on TV. If he was poor, he'd be thinking about his next meal.

In this video, a 15-year-old boy broke into the home of a native doctor to help him get money quickly.

When the native doctor saw how young he was, he tricked him into swearing an oath. He didn't tell him that by doing so, he was putting a curse on himself that said he could never do money rituals again, either now or in the future.

If we look at how native doctors have taken over Facebook and how they used to give money to sakawa boys, should we also blame them for this sudden desire for money?

This is what happens when people praise wealth without asking where it comes from. Kids have seen men with bad or stolen money get praised, and they have seen people with a good name die badly and get made fun of. They are following the lead.
