I think we need to talk more about what some Nigerians doing care jobs in the UK are going through. Their families back home expect so much from them, but nobody really knows what they are sacrificing to meet those expectations. One of the seniors I looked up to on campus travelled to the UK recently. I didn't even know he had travelled until I found out later. Back on campus, this man helped me a lot, especially with my medication. But since he started working as a carer in the UK and combining work with school, it's almost impossible to reach him. You could message him today and wait two to four days for a reply. I eventually asked him how he was coping, and he told me he barely sleeps at home. He goes there to change clothes, eat, and return to work or school. He even told me at some point that he was depressed. Meanwhile, his family back home expects him to provide financially because he's now in the UK. But what hurts me most is that even some of his friends no longer rate him because of the job he's doing. These are people who loved and respected him when he was still in Nigeria. I've heard the way some of them talk about him now, and honestly, it's sad. This is a good man who has always been there for people, yet some people now look down on him simply because he's doing care work abroad. We see people travel abroad and assume they've made it, but we rarely ask what their lives are actually like.
