Nollywood actor, Ugeze J Ugeze has revealed why Nigerians trapped in war-torn Ukraine prefer to die there rather than return home.
He said that the distorted nature of Nigeria is the main reason, coupled with the impunity of the ruling class who have been looting the nation’s wealth since 1960.
Hetty’s Media earlier reported that the Foreign Affairs Minister, Geoffrey Onyeama was horrified that Nigerian citizens trapped in the Russia-Ukraine crisis have refused to return home.
He stated the sad development in the course of a meeting on Monday, with the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Femi Gbajabiamila in Abuja.
The Minister stated that, “We hope to start evacuation hopefully Wednesday, although some do not want to come back. We are doing everything possible to ensure that come Wednesday, we will dispatch planes for evaluation.”
Reacting to the development, the Nollywood actor via his Instagram handle said that it should be course for concern for the government that its citizens are refusing the help rendered them in crisis.
He added that the reason should not surprise anyone as no one would want to come back to a country where the public officers loot with impunity.
In his words, “It is now news some of the Nigerians stranded in Ukraine are not ready to come back. This should be of serious concern to the government.
“Who wants to come back to a country public officers have been looting with impunity since 1960, a country where those punished are those who lost bearing in the looting circle? Nigeria, Terminally destoryed.”
