What Is The One Thing That Comes To Mind When You Think About Or Hear Japa?

Every year Nigerian youth migrate in their numbers to Europe. IOM report titled ‘Nigeria- Migration Drivers And Reasons For Migration’ shows that the major primary reason why Nigerians migrate; at 50% is lack of jobs/livelihoods.

I was out on the streets asking some people this question; “Mention one thing that comes to your mind when you think about or hear Japa”. ‘Opportunities’ and ‘better life’ featured repeatedly.

Always remember that what you’re looking for in Sokoto can be found in Sokoto, the grass is not always greener on the other side.
