A reunion party of Nigerian men in their mid-50s has gone viral after a video revealed that none of them currently live in Nigeria.
The trending clip, which shows the men dressed in stylish agbada outfits, captured them introducing themselves by name, profession, and country of residence. To the shock of many viewers, every alumnus declared they now live abroad — in either Canada or the United States — with not a single one based in Nigeria.
The video has ignited heated discussions online. Some Nigerians praised the men for achieving success overseas, while others criticized the moment as a reflection of Nigeria’s worsening socio-economic challenges.
Observers say the incident underscores the harsh realities pushing citizens to seek greener pastures abroad. Others argued that the introductions felt like subtle “oppression,” turning migration into a status symbol at the expense of those still living in Nigeria.
