"Don't Waste Time Abroad": Nigerian Man Suffering Overseas Hits Jackpot after Returning To Nigeria With Wife
A Nigerian man has shared his experience years after relocating abroad in search of greener pastures.
According to the young man, he lived abroad for years with his wife, but they had nothing to show for it.
However, they decided to come back to Nigeria, and years after their return, they were able to make it big.
A Nigerian man identified as @shamseddinGiwa on Twitter has shared his story of the struggles and challenges after relocating.
He moved abroad with his wife several years ago in search of a better life. However, they soon realised that the reality was different from their dreams.
The couple started their life in a single room within a shared flat where they were told when to use the washing machine or turn on the heater, even in winter.
They found the jobs demeaning and tiring, and despite earning what they thought was good money, the exchange rate of their home currency deceived them.
They struggled to live an average life, and their marriage was strained due to their extreme work routine. Giwa highlighted that many people who had relocated abroad also had it bad, with some having to send their spouses back home and their marriages going through even more difficulties.
He lamented: “What's the point? Relocating will test you and your marriage in different ways. Please be sure before you copy anyone and sell all you have to move. However, if you find yourself stuck, have a good exit plan, even if it means coming back home to start over. "Many people and marriages are breaking due to the pressure unplanned. Don't go this route, do your findings well, your home depends on it,” he said.
He added that they were always at the home office's mercy, which made them feel unsettled even while working. In the end, they returned home and quietly started over together. Decades later, everything they sought abroad got handed to them back home.
