“Most people here are broke,” Tacha said in a viral video, urging Nigerians to rethink relocating abroad.
Reality TV star Natasha Akide, popularly known as Tacha, has stirred online debate with claims that many Nigerians living in the United Kingdom are struggling financially.
“You see those of you always having inferiority complex in Nigeria, thinking everyone here is rich, most people here are broke,” Tacha stated in a viral video.
Currently based in the UK, the former Big Brother Naija star said, “The most broke people I have met are actually the people I met in the UK. Everyone is holding themselves. It is expensive.”
Tacha blamed rising living costs for the hardship and advised Nigerians considering relocation to be realistic. “Trust me when I tell you that the living situation here is not rosy. In fact, most people in Nigeria are living better off than people actually living here,” she added.
“You see yourself spending 300k on a freaking taxi in a freaking day, 1 million on a car in a week unless you want to use the train,” she warned.
