Big Brother Naija(BBNaija) RealityTV star and influencer, Tacha Akide, has garnered waves of reaction on social following her observation on the financial struggles of Nigerians living in the United Kingdom.
Tacha who relocated to UK last year 2024, has taken to her social media page to share her perspective on the struggles in living a comfortable life as a Nigerian in UK.
According to her, many Nigerians abroad are not financially secured as is commonly perceived.
Tacha noted that contrary to the that many Nigerians in the UK are barely surviving, with some even living less comfortably than their counterparts in Nigeria, particularly due to the high cost of living in the UK.
Tacha further stated that, from her observation, many people in Nigeria are actually living more comfortably than those abroad, especially with the rising cost of living in the UK.

She said: “You see those of you always having inferiority complex in Nigeria, thinking everyone here is rich, most people here are broke. The most broke people I have met are actually the people I met in the UK. Everyone is holding themselves. It is expensive.”
“Trust me when I tell you that the living situation here is not rosy. In fact, most people in Nigeria are living better off than people actually living here. So if you want to move, go ahead, but not with the mentality of ‘oh, it’s all rosy.’
“You see yourself spending 300k on a freaking taxi in a freaking day, 1 million on a car in a week unless you want to use the train. Think about your decision,”
Tacha’s remarks have sparked debate on social media, with many internet users, sharing their own experiences and realities of living abroad versus the expectations held by those back home.
