Most Nigerians living in UK are broke, says Tacha

She emphasised that contrary to the idealized notion of life abroad, the reality is far from luxurious.

“You see those of you always having inferiority complex in Nigeria, thinking everyone here is rich, most people here are broke. The most broke people I have met are actually the people I met in the UK. Everyone is holding themselves. It is expensive,” Tacha said.

She continued by cautioning those in Nigeria who dream of relocating abroad without fully understanding the financial implications.

“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. So if you want to move, go ahead, but not with the mentality of ‘oh, it’s all rosy.’ 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. Think about your decision,” she added.
