An abroad-based Nigerian man has lambasted Nigerian immigrants in the UK who complain that the life they had in Nigeria is better than the one they have in United Kingdom.
The young man identified as @tk_oso took to Twitter to shun Nigerians who relocated to Britain as he asserted that the UK life is no doubt better than Nigeria.
According to him, Nigerians should stop looking for sympathy from those back home and should stop feeding them lies. He explained that although the work in the Uk can be hectic and stressful but every work or extra job is paid for, hence everyone profits from what they do.

He asserted that the things they see on a daily basis (Electricity, good roads, feeding etc) without too much stress were things that were difficult to get in Nigeria. He counseled Nigerian immigrants that the life they had back at home was not made in a year but was built in many years so they should stop expecting a miracle in just a year of living in Britain as he persuaded them that their lives were definitely going to get better.
“The things you left in Nigeria, did you build them in a year? Why do you want your life to suddenly transform in one year of japa? If you see progress, be thankful and keep pushing cos you’ll soon break through. Some of the things UK people say makes me puke,” he said.
“In your 12 months here, police hasn’t stopped you once, you’ve never heard sound of generator or constant blaring of horns. You have constant power and superb internet, eat whatever you want without breaking the bank. Anytime you feel ungrateful, remember why you left Nigeria”
“We know how bad things are back home, no one going through the wahala in Nigeria will take you serious when you complain. Don’t look for sympathy from people back home. Stop looking for Pele and ehyah from someone that’s not had light in two weeks. Thank you,” he concluded.

In another news, @mumconfessions, a mother shared her personal experience of living abroad and advised that it is best for struggling and average Nigerians.
She stated that there is no social life abroad and that it is all about work. She even went as far as recommending that people who are comfortable in Nigeria should remain there and only travel abroad for vacations.
The mother’s advice was based on her own experience of living abroad with her children, while her husband remained in Nigeria.
