Lady returns from UK to Nigeria to become a farmer
Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that a pretty lady had left the UK to become a full-time farmer in Nigeria.
She believes in the popular Nigerian saying that there is no place like home. According to her, life at home is very different from living abroad.
In an interview with Vlogger Tayo Aina seen by Legit.ng, the young lady admitted that life in Nigeria since her return hasn't been easy as she has had to struggle with so many things but at the end of the day, her resolve keeps her going.
The Nigeria entrepreneur is of the opinion that life abroad is a lonely one compared to Nigeria where everyone relates and lives like a family.
