7 Years After Relocating to UK, Man Celebrates As He Successfully Bags Citizenship
- A Nigerian man who relocated to the UK seven years ago said the decision to move abroad was the best
- The man who has become a citizen of the UK said moving abroad was like a total rebirth for him as a human
- He said he travelled with only two suitcases, but now he would need five containers to carry his load
A Nigerian man is overjoyed that he has become a citizen of the United Kingdom.
The man said he decided to relocate to the UK seven years ago and that his decision paid off.
According to don_pet, when he was travelling abroad, he only had two suitcases with him.
However, his life has improved so much that if he were to return to Nigeria, he would need containers to carry his load.
He wrote on X:
"7 years ago today I entered this great country as a resident. I came with the bags on the second frame, but I might need 5 containers to pack my load now if I was to go back (sorry I forgot I’m now a citizen). 3rd frame was my first day at work and 4th my first ever BRP. I celebrate this day more than my birthday, after all, that move 7 years ago was my rebirth. For everyone considering leaving Nigeria, don’t think twice, the system there is set to suppress you. Sometimes, all u need is a little push to discover yourself. I bless the land of United Kingdom and I pledge to defend its honour with every fibre in me. Thanks for giving my life a meaning, thanks for helping me get closer to my dreams."
