Nigerians in the UK Are Struggling Financially, Says Tacha
BBNaija’s Tacha causes buzz online after saying many Nigerians in the UK are broke.
She says living abroad isn’t as easy as people in Nigeria think.
Former Big Brother Naija star Tacha Akide has stirred controversy online with her recent comments about Nigerians living in the United Kingdom. In a video shared on social media, the reality star who recently relocated to the UK claimed that many people residing there are not as financially stable as some Nigerians might believe.
According to Tacha, life in the UK is expensive, and most of the people she has encountered are simply getting by.
“You see those of you in Nigeria always feeling inferior, thinking everyone abroad is rich most people here are broke,” she said. “The most broke people I’ve met are actually here in the UK. Everybody is just managing. It’s expensive as f*ck.”
She went on to assert that many Nigerians back home are living more comfortably than those struggling abroad.
Tacha’s remarks have since gone viral, reigniting conversations about life abroad versus back home, and the financial realities many migrants face in countries like the UK.
