Nigeria’s first lady, Oluremi Tinubu, has queried Nigerians travelling abroad to take jobs they wouldn’t do in Nigeria.
Speaking while featuring on Arise News on Thursday, March 21, the former senator, also encouraged Nigerians to help each other amid the economic crisis.
According to her, it is incumbent on “those God has blessed to help the poor” because the government cannot provide food for everyone.
Addressing the “Japa” syndrome and the hardship currently plaguing the country, Remi said: “Nigerians we can help each other.
“It’s not that the government will begin to give food to everybody.
“It is for people God has blessed to help the poor.”
She added: “Even those people saying they are going to Japa, they go there. What work are they going to do?
“Work that you refused to do at home where you have loved ones, you end up going to do that.
“Even with all their education, they are driving cabs but won’t drive cabs here.”
