She went ahead to say that Africa is blessed if not that it is saddled with corrupt leaders. The health practitioner, however, stated that despite all the heavy taxes she is paying, she is sure the money is being put into good use.
In the UK, the nurse revealed she does not have to worry about bad healthcare, insecurity, or bad roads. She added that she will still rather stay abroad.

Ladies acting as conductors in UK
Meanwhile, YEN.com.gh earlier reported that a Nigerian lady with the handle @noblekitkat and her friends made a video that shows typical Nigerian behaviour.
While on a public bus in the UK, the ladies turned it into a noise-filled vehicle as is customary for danfo buses in Lagos state.
The whole vehicle became a din of conductors' voices trying to inform passengers of different bus stops as they shouted "o wa, o wa o."
