Sierra Leonean Obidient Shares Experience with Recently Japa’d Nigerians


An ‘Obidient’ Sierra Leonean, Abdul Taylor-Kamara has narrated his experience with two Nigerians who only recently ‘japa’d’ (relocated overseas).

Just like the 2 Nigerians, Taylor is a staunch supporter of Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Labour party (LP) in the 2023 general elections.

The ‘Obidients’ as they are fondly called are majorly youths, who were exhausted with the unprecedented level of insecurity, record inflation, unemployment rates and many other issues, backing the former Anambra governor, Peter Obi.

The Sierra Leonean took to his Tuesday handle on Tuesday to narrate how he met the Nigerians on a train in London and decided to pay their bills after which they discussed the on-going presidential tribunal.

He added that they were amazed at how ‘Obidient’ he was, despite not being Nigerian.

Taylor, who expressed joy after meeting with the Nigerians, added that they blessed him for the hospitality after they alighted from the train.

Taylor wrote: “Bumped into two newly Japa’d Nigerians at a train station today. They asked for directions and told them I’m going to the same destination. We started conversing, and they were amazed at how Obidient i am despite being a Sierra Leonean.

“I can see the shock on their faces when I paid the bill as they’ve already converted it into Naira. We then discussed the election petition, and I told them I take my Ipad to work just to keep up to date on proceedings.

I then mentioned @General_Oluchi @MissPearls @baikoblo @TheSerahIbrahim and @_weyimi for my daily update.

Though I don’t comment on their post, but I’m following avidly. I took pictures with them, but decided not to post it as i respect their privacy.They bless me so much for the hospitality that I wish those blessings will turn. To money I’ve now got two new Ellu P 78&79 friends.”
