Nigerians At Home Better Than Most “Japa” People – Bwala , President Tinubu’s Spokesman Declares

Presidential spokesperson, Daniel Bwala, has stirred another round of controversy with his claim that Nigerians seeking greener pastures abroad, particularly in the United Kingdom, UK, are worse off economically than low income earners at home.

While featuring in The Morayo Show, Bwala further claimed that many Nigerians who have relocated abroad are engaged  by Care Homes and other low income profile jobs, despite parading array of University degrees and other professional certificates.

According to him, most of the immigrants are facing excruciating difficulties and harsher realities than those within the modest income bracket in Nigeria.

He claimed that most of the so-called ” japa” Nigerians” are silently regretting their expedition , describing their condition as “modern day slavery” .

He urged Nigerians not to be deceived into believing that it is all rosy for those of them that have left the shores of the country in search of “a better living condition.”

He noted that things are so  hard for some of the “japa” people in their countries of abode that Nigerians earning as low as N60,000 monthly are far better off  than them.

As a resident of the UK , Bwala insisted that his assessment, and claim are based on experience.

“I want to tell you today that some of you in Nigeria still think you are suffering. You are better off than your colleagues that “japa” five years ago.

“I am a resident of the United Kingdom. Nigerians that finished with first class or second class degrees, and later obtained postgraduate degrees, do you know where the majority of them are working, Care homes.

“As far as I am concerned, it is modern day slavery.  The type of jobs many Nigerian graduates and post-graduates are offered are less than that of a house maid, ironically in an economy that is supposed to provide opportunities” he stated.
