From an experience on the Grand Marché (Lomé) from an event on the Grand Marché Lomé:
A group of volunteers is on Monday morning over the Grand Marché of Lomé. It is, as always, hot, stuffy, and people everywhere are levels at which traders try, but somehow the wealthy looking Yovos (Ewe = clever dog name for whites) hawking their wares. The group of volunteers is now separated by several meters away and crowds, everyone is looking at various articles to - driving a normal situation in the market.
be suddenly bumped into two of the volunteers of two men acting hastily, but they are gone right back into the crowd.
"Fuck my money is gone!"
18 000 CFA in the breast pocket of a shirt for any reasonably talented pickpocket easy prey. Now everyone thinks, oh shit was stupid, but is now happening, you can not change anything. Now we come, however, only the interesting part of the story:
After a volunteer for the first time is extremely upset, he does extremely alert - all in a radius of ten meters noticed immediately that a white person equivalent of just under 30 € stole been are. Everyone is looking for a potential thief to and actually has an attentive passerby spotted the thieves and the thief is quickly made. This puts after some angry words honest of furious men eventually the money out again.
With the help of half the market Yovo thus recovered its money.
In such a poor country like Togo 30 euros a whole pile of money with you for some time has something to eat.
has, however, the volunteers get his money back to the last CFA.
