My mom rushed to church to do thanksgiving and the following week I got alert of 80k to get a new phone and laptop, I used the money to change my wardrobe.

8. SICKNESS.

Another method of collecting money is to call home that you are sick, tell them you need money to buy drugs. Parents don’t like hearing that their wards are sick, they will be eager to send you money for treatment. If they ask you to come home tell them, you can’t that they should send money first to treat yourself.

9. SPIRITUAL LIES.

This doesn’t work for everyone, but you can try your luck by telling your parents that Your pastor/Alfa gave you a revelation which need urgent attention that you must do. Notify them of the amount you need which might be 5k or 10k depending on the amount you need at that very moment.
