What is the theme conveyed in this passage? Read the excerpt from "Civil Peace" by Chinua Achebe.
As soon as the pound notes were placed in his palm
Jonathan simply closed it tight over them and buried fist
and money inside his trouser pocket. He had to be extra
careful because he had seen a man a couple of days
earlier collapse into near-madness in an instant before
that oceanic crowd because no sooner had he got his
twenty pounds than some heartless ruffian picked it off
him.
O Money should be hidden in one's pocket.
Sometimes a blessing can be a burden.
O Athief stole a man's much-needed money.
O Crowds of people can never be trusted.
