Becky, a Nigerian lady residing in Asia, has expressed sadness over life overseas. In a video she posted on her YouTube channel, Becky wept profusely, saying she feels like a disappointment to everyone.
Becky said she feels she disappointed her mother and her deceased father because she has not achieved anything. According to Becky, she is ashamed to return to Nigeria as she does not know where she would start from.
She lamented how tough life is for her in Asia, adding that her work visa application was denied.
She said she has “appointment to my mum. Because I have not achieved anything. I don’t even know where to start from if I go back home. So, that’s it. I submitted for my work visa and I was denied. They didn’t approve it. Right now, I don’t even know where to start from.
“Life is hard. You see, abroad is not like what you all think it is…” In the video, Becky warned Nigerians against relocating to Asian countries in search of greener pastures, stressing that it is not rewarding.

Some make it within 3 years of moving abroad and some, it takes more years. Our families donāt understand. They think the moment you travel abroad, youāve already made it. The expectations are too much.”

@obiokeke8058: “My sister, don’t allow the devil to scam you. Nothing is late, just move back to Nigeria and start all over. Nigeria is a land of many opportunities. The least you can do in Nigeria is farming. I am a proud local farmer. God has a bigger plan for you in Nigeria. Make that bold move now!”
@WGS118: “Africans need to stop this high expectations of people living abroad. Aboard is not bread and butter. Stressful life living in abroad.“
