The lady identified as Rosemary Egbo took to her LinkedIn page to disclose that she is happy to learn that a lot of hardworking people she knows are travelling out of the country.

Egbo, who disclosed her friend also recently travelled to Australia, said she would have been a little sad that these people have left the shores of the country, but she is happy for them.

She said: "But it was unlike me. Some months ago, I would have been a little sad that a lot of hardworking people I know are running to other nations for refuge, but I'm just happy for them.

"When it comes to #Nigeria, I'm very positive, but I see that side of (sic) dying by the day. This is a place where you have to put in more than your best to enjoy the basic needs of life."
