A lady in the UK has shared the reactions of her friend in Nigeria she sent N30K as she prepares for her mother’s funeral.
In the video that was shared by the lady in the UK, @jane_peterz, she disclosed that she called her friend to confirm if the transfer went through.
According to the lady, after her friend confirmed receiving the money, she told her she was expecting more.
When she asked her friend how much she was expecting, the latter said N150k or N200k. She said:
“I wanted to cry. I don’t know why people see those abroad as if they’re plucking money from the tree. I never had that mentality even when I was back home in Africa.”
She added: “On top 12 hours shift, 1-hour unpaid break, train cancellations and bus delays, council tax, electricity, water and house expenses. It’s well. everyone needs to go abroad! maybe that will help.”
