Nigerian actor Jimmy Odukoya went undercover as a homeless person to explain to his followers what it means to show kindness this Christmas. Odukoya, who is also a pastor, dressed in a shabby outfit as he went to a popular mall in Lagos.
On getting there, he got a loaf of bread and water and walked around looking for fellow shoppers to pay for the items.
First, he approaches a man and a lady for help, and both of them turn him down. Then a few minutes into the video, he meets a lady who agrees to pay for his bread and water effortlessly. He declines and, in return, pays for everything she bought after he reveals his identity.
He later meets an aged woman he describes as “grandma” who, after reprimanding him for collecting items he cannot pay for, agrees to pay for them. Just like the first lady, he pays for “grandma’s” items.
Finally, he meets a lady who is buying a pack of juice and pleads for help. The lady declines on the ground that she doesn’t have enough money on her. He introduces himself and pays for her pack of juice.
