However, when Awoniyi, who plays for English club Nottingham Forest as a forward, sought to give him money, he rejected the KSh 3,265. According to Peter, his father warned him not to take gifts from strangers. Nworah wrote: "In a country where respect for older people is no longer very much obtainable, and young people armed with smartphones easily throw abuses at seniors online, I took notice and beckoned on the kid to please come back. We told him we were impressed with the way he greeted us. Afterwards, I offered him a little cash gift in appreciation, but he turned it down. When I enquired why, he said his dad forbade him from accepting things from strangers. Reactions as Nigerian boy rejects money Charles John said: "That boy will go far. During our days our parents did the same. Still, we collected the money and use the money. Even if the stranger was a cultist, we did not care. We would pocket the money."
