“If you are earning well, like at least 500k in Nigeria, you don’t need to JAPA” – USA-based Nigerian man

Mixed reactions trail the advice of a USA-based Nigerian man urging other Nigerians to stay back in their country.

The man, Oladeji Kehinde on TikTok claims that people in diaspora are not better than those staying back in Nigeria and that only the very poor should attempt to come over.

He advises those earning at least 500k per month or bi-monthly in Nigeria should not bother to Japa because they will learn the hard way. According to him, they suffer over there too and most regret why they went in the first place.

Oladeji cautions people selling their properties and leaving their high-paying jobs in Nigeria to start from scratch in a strange land. He claims they are On Their own (O.Y.O).

While some agree with him, others refute. Read some of the comments:
