Nigerian skit maker, Isaac Aloma, popularly known as Zicsaloma has disclosed that some young Nigerians are living in worse conditions than they were while in Nigeria.

The lecturer turn skit maker made this known in a series of tweets via his Twitter page where he advised young Nigerians desperate to leave the country for greener pastures to do proper research on the country they are traveling to.

Aloma also raised concerns over the mass emigration among Nigerians, stressing that travelling abroad is not always the yardstick for success as many assumed.

He wrote:  “About my last tweet about ‘Japa’. I never said anyone can’t leave Nigeria if it’s their dream. I am just concerned about the mass relocation which in my opinion, seems like everyone has totally given up on the country and If everyone has that mindset, we can’t stand and fight…

“Many young people do not even care about the country they are going. No wonder I have met some of my friends in some of these countries (wouldn’t want to call them names) and they live in worse situations than when they were in Nigeria.

“Of course, I would not want to post screenshots of Nigerians in some countries begging for funds.”

The comedian also called on people to ditch the mindset that they cannot make it in Nigeria.

“Before you ‘japa’ to a random country, inquire about their immigration laws and not just ‘because’ the country is fine,” he added.

“I still have faith in my country, Nigeria. I might not be the popular voice you hear on social media ranting about bad government, but I really want young people to stand and ensure this country works.”
