OGECHI

Every Nigerian abroad thinks their location is the best location. Let’s settle this once and for all. 🇺🇸 US: The largest diaspora globally. They will tell you the dollar is ‘stronger’ then complain about medical insurance for 30 minutes. Their accent don change by year 3 🤌🏾 🇬🇧 UK: The second largest and the most historic. Will tell you Pound is stronger than the US Dollar and look down on US Nigerians for it. Half the conversation is about HMRC, NHS waiting lists, COS and ILR. 🇨🇦 Canada: The fastest growing. Brampton is headquarters. Half the conversation is about PR and the other half is about taxes. 🇦🇺 Australia: Only 4,500 of them in the whole country. The flex is the distance. “Do you know how far I am from Lagos?” Yes oga we know. 🇮🇪 Ireland: The underdogs. Doing well quietly. Nobody talks about them and they like it that way. 🇩🇪 Germany: Speak two and a half languages and still confused. Salary fine. Tax brutal. Bureaucracy will humble you. 🇦🇪 Dubai: Always at brunch. Tax free salary. Heat that will finish you. Nobody talks about the visa renewal stress. 🇿🇦 SA: God abeg 😭 If you have lived in any of these places, defend your corner. Nigerians in Nigeria 🇳🇬 I am right, yeah?

I’m glad i didn’t collect laptop on credit and had my dad pay up the debt. I didn’t abscond with the money meant for my friends wedding preparation and had my mum refund it. I wasn’t arrested and taking to the station and had my mum step in to pay over 30m at zone two.

What a privilege to be able to see, talk, walk, hear and breathe. Alhamdulillah!

The look on his face 😭🤣

Name a pain someone can't really understand unless they have experienced it.

Gen Zs really have no respect. See how this girl called a whole Yoruba king “Kabs baby” as in “Kabiyesi baby” 😂
