Man Who Returned To Nigeria After Years Abroad Reveals Why He Owes His Mother An Apology

A Nigerian man, who recently paid a visit back home to Nigeria after years abroad, has taken to his X page to reveal why he owes his mother an apology.

The man wrote on X four days ago: "Last night in Lagos, it’s been fun. This is not a country."

He returned to the platform today to explain his initial tweet.

He wrote: "I left Nigeria few years ago and my mom would tell me things are expensive but my head couldn’t comprehend it (I multiply it by 2 worst case scenario), at some point, I thought she just wanted more money for herself. I just got back from Nigeria & I owe her an apology.

"Things have gotten so bad in Nigeria that throughout my stay, I kept wondering how people were surviving. All the things I used to buy years ago have gone up minimum of times 3/4. Everybody is begging, life is hard even for people that are working their asses off. It’s so bad.

“If they tell you about the situation of the country when you’re outside, you won’t be able to fully understand how bad it has gotten, you need to feel it to understand what they’ve been saying. I don’t think I can properly explain how bad it has gotten.”
