According to Devy, her journey began in Nigeria before she relocated to South Africa. She later left South Africa and moved to the UK, where she has lived and worked for more than four years.
In the video, she explained that her current difficulties stem from changes affecting her employer's ability to sponsor foreign workers.
She said the company she works for can no longer provide a Certificate of Sponsorship, a requirement for many migrant workers seeking to continue living and working in the UK.
The situation has left her uncertain about her future despite years of employment and efforts to establish herself professionally.
Devy also disclosed that attempts to secure alternative opportunities have proven challenging. She said some positions she applied for did not offer sponsorship, while an application to pursue further studies encountered obstacles related to academic qualification requirements.
The emotional video resonated with many social media users, some of whom shared similar experiences navigating immigration systems and employment challenges abroad.
Others expressed sympathy and encouragement, noting the difficulties many migrants face while pursuing better opportunities outside their home countries.
The video has since fueled wider discussions about migration, career uncertainty and the obstacles faced by Africans seeking long-term stability abroad.
