About The Episode
There are large disparities on how many Nigerians live in the diaspora, according to a PWC report, official figures from 2017 state that 1.24 million Nigerians live in the diaspora, a figure that is believed to be far higher now but some figures state that as many as 5- 15million Nigerians live abroad. Whatever the figure is now, many Nigerians live in the diaspora and day by day more people contribute to the "Japa" wave - This is essentially a wave of Nigerians leaving the country for better lives abroad but it doesn't always work out as planned and some people have found themselves back at home like Lordson, my guest on the podcast.
