Nigerian actor, singer and music producer, Elozonam Ogbolu, has confessed that he is now wary of making new friends as they might relocate because the Nigerian economy isn’t getting better.
He made this known while featuring on a recent episode of the ‘Uncolored’ podcast, where he spoke on the effects of “Japa” syndrome on relationships and how it has affected him personally.
According to the thespian who took part in the fourth season of popular TV reality show Big Brother Naija (BBNaija), his relationships with his twin brother and other siblings have become poor following their relocation abroad.

Speaking during the now trending interview, Elozonam said, “The economic hardship in Nigeria is unbearable. I won’t say I got hit the hardest but as far as I know, it has affected a lot of my relationships.
“Between 2018 to 2024, the first person that left my life was my boss when I was working a 9-5 job. We were close but he moved to Canada with his family.
“After that, it’s like he opened the floodgate for everybody; people in my life started relocating abroad.
“The inherent effect of that is that you’re now too wary of making new friends because they might relocate abroad tomorrow.
“So everything is on the surface level now; you can’t make real friends because they can relocate anytime. Nigeria is not getting any better. We all know this.”
