My dad (rest in peace to him) was the type that required us to write our school needs on an foolscap sheet.

Then, he went on to cut and cut until 50k became 5k.

No provisions, no clothes, no stationeries, no household stuffs etc.

Just rent, school fees, transport fare, school association dues and very few school needs like photocopies, project etc.

We used to add imaginary items like textbooks but the man caught on and wouldn't even give us the money for that.

So, we turned to increasing school fees, hostel rent and inventing payments for school associations.

I once got creative and told him we were doing some construction project in school and we needed to buy blocks, cement and wood.

He couldn't cut that money.

I remember collecting between 10-20k for that project back then.

Your dad was exactly has mine. Rest in peace Dad.

One time I collected school fees for first and second semester. As the thing one cast the next session I told my Dad they now only pay for a session.
A friend of mine told a lie about driving a friend's car and badly hitting someone so he was arrested and taken to the police cell. He asked this friend of his to call his mum and tell her that he needed 150k to be free if not he will be charged to court the next day.
In the process of the mum looking for the money she met an AIG of police who said he would help.
That's how he requested to speak with the guy making the calls. The AIG asked which police station it was and the dude lied to the AIG not knowing he was speaking to an AIG. The AIG quickly put a call through to the Police station he was told only for them to say there was no case like that.
Long story short, the job was about going sideways so this friend decided to call the mum himself saying the police just released him because of a call they got from a certain AIG. Buy that she should just send 35k to treat the accident victim. That's how the mum sent the money immediately.

This is a wicked child. So the money wasnt even plenty t home and the poor mother was running around looking for it. It is well oh.

As for me no lies cos them go catch me straight. Old man knew everything that was going on upto house rent. He paid the owner of the crib direct without me knowing when sef. So how do you dupe him.

Na to talk true. Everybody has tv, I wan buy dvd. No need to try lie.

You are lucky to have parents who even have to give.

I had to struggle my way through school myself from selling Ice block at Alaba market to acting as a house agent for students to being a Snooker game Board man to selling none tested tv and so on.

So I no even see money collect for genuine reasons howbeit made up stories Lol!

Here is a true story. Thumbs up bro..may your future always be brighter than your past.

Well, I've never lied to collect money, I always tell them the exact amount for anything I have to pay for in school, as for pocket money, they always give me any amount, when it finishes, I tell them. I'm not extravagant tho, so it's not like I call them every week. Mum once told me,I'm too honest wink, I just laughed.
