Houston-based real estate developer Femi Rogers has said that Nigerians are beginning to realise that the roads of Western countries are not filled with gold.
Mr Rogers stated this while speaking on the migration wave locally dubbed Japa during a recent appearance on Frankly Business Podcast.
“There is a lot of misconception by a lot of Nigerians about the Western world. They think the roads are filled with gold, things are easy, and that’s wrong. I think a lot of people are realising that now,” he said.
Rogers said many Nigerians in the diaspora misuse credit and end up being imprisoned by debt.
He noted that Nigerian authorities must make the country business-friendly to attract investments from countrymen in the diaspora.
