“Dear youths, please don’t Japa” – Governor Obaseki’s media aide advises, Netizens fume

Sarah Igunbor, the Senior Special Assistant on Digital Media to the Edo State Governor, Godwin Obaseki, has offered her advice to Nigerian youths.

Igunbor, who is currently located in the UK, took to social media to share her thoughts on the matter.

In a Facebook post on Monday, August 14, Igunbor passionately encouraged Nigerian youths to reconsider their decisions of leaving the country in search of greener pastures.

She wrote;

Dear young people, please don’t Jakpa,” alluding to the colloquial term used to describe leaving or absconding from a place.

Do you experience lack of electricity, bad road with potholes, kidnappers, Fulani herdsmen, agitation, fuel scarcity, armed robbery, and all the nonsense crimes you and your evil leadership inflicted on Nigeria? Do you have any job for the youth? Are you not the ones that charge kickback before offering employment? Do your bosses not sleep with females before giving them the least jobs? Compare UK and Nigeria and you won’t vomit this your rubbish. If anyone has any chance of leaving please let the person leave . Everywhere has challenges but Nigeria is the worst and there’s no solution in sight. CRIMINALS IN POWER”
