"Gist"

A Nigerian man has taken to social media to lament about how he abandoned his life of luxury, living in a duplex in Nigeria.

He complained about how expensive and difficult it is to live abroad as he is now confined to a one room apartment with his family in the UK.

In the video making the rounds online, the young Nigerian man who immigrated to the UK to join his wife who has been there for years complained bitterly the move.

The man could be heard speaking in the Igbo dialect complaining about the struggle of wearing sweaters and gloves because of the cold weather.

He also complained about the cost of rent while comparing Nigeria to the UK where it cost him £1,400 monthly for a room; a rough estimate of almost N1.3M.

“I was in Nigeria enjoying and living in a duplex and I came to London (UK), they’re telling me just one room for £1,400 which is almost N1.3 million.

“Now I am just going nearby to buy something but I must wear shoes. Still wear sweater, cap, and hand gloves as if I am travelling. Whilst it’s just this close place I’m going to.

What kind of rubbish country is this? If I tell people in Nigeria not to come, them no go understand,” he said.

His wife could be heard in the background making fun of how the decision to relocate was his.
