Description:A poor blind leper lamented so much about his suffering and God descended on earth to give him wealth but warned him never to disclose it to anybody. However, the chief of his village was surprise about his sudden rise from poverty to wealth. He invited him to come and tell him how he got his wealth but he had some drums who followed him to the chief palace reminding him about the secret he is about to tell. So he refused to reveal the secret but on the second time the chief gave him drink and he became drunk and revealed the secret to the chief. God became unhappy about this and sent him back to his poor state. After this event God decided not to help people again.
