Reality star shocks fans after relocating, says many Nigerians back home live better than those struggling abroad
Former Big Brother Naija star Tacha Akide has sparked debate after boldly claiming that many Nigerians living in the UK are “broke” and barely getting by—while those back home enjoy better lives.
In a candid video shared online, the outspoken reality TV personality, who recently moved to the UK, didn’t hold back. “People in Nigeria need to stop thinking everyone abroad is rich,” she said. “Most people here are broke—the most broke people I’ve met are actually in the UK. Everyone is just managing.”
Tacha, known for her unfiltered takes, emphasized the high cost of living overseas, saying, “It’s expensive as f$ck out here.” She argued that despite the perception of greener pastures, many Nigerians back home live more comfortably than their counterparts struggling abroad.
A Reality Check on the ‘Japa’ Dream?
Her statement also raises questions about Nigeria’s ongoing “Japa” wave—the mass migration of young professionals seeking better opportunities overseas. While many succeed, Tacha’s claims suggest that the dream isn’t always as rosy as it seems.
Will her words make Nigerians reconsider the rush to relocate? Or is this just another controversial take from the ever-opinionated star? One thing’s certain—Tacha has once again got the internet talking.
