Returning To Nigeria Is The Best Decision I Ever Made – Content Creator Ugo Eaglet Opens Up
Content creator Peter Ugochukwu Okafor, popularly known as Ugo Eaglet, has revealed that his decision to return home from Europe remains the best choice he has ever made.
In a post on Instagram, Eaglet disclosed that the high cost of living abroad, including exorbitant house rent, utility bills, and health insurance, had become overwhelming.
According to Eaglet, his monthly expenses in Austria included €1,700 for rent, €240 for electricity and €400 for health insurance, among other costs.
“These expenses were just too much. I’m not discouraging anyone from travelling—you have to travel to understand. But when you travel and make it, come back to your home country. Instead of paying unnecessary bills there, come back and invest in Nigeria”, he said.
He noted that these expenses had become unsustainable, prompting him to return to Nigeria.
He also claimed that many men, especially those above 50 living overseas, secretly desire to return home but often struggle to convince their wives.
According to him, such conversations usually spark resistance and conflict in many marriages.
Eaglet praised his wife, Jenny Slimzy, for support and understanding, saying she had been instrumental in his decision to return home.
“Anywhere you go, I will follow you. Honey, what are we even still doing here? I’m even bored here, let’s go back to our country,” she told him.
“I thank God for giving me a caring, loving and understanding wife. Jenny Slimzy is the best thing that ever happened to me,”,he added.
Since returning to Nigeria, Eaglet said he has been able to live a more comfortable life, free from the financial burdens he faced abroad.
He is encouraging other Nigerians living in the diaspora to consider returning home and investing in their country.
“Coming back to Nigeria is the best decision I made this year. Now I sleep like a baby, no more unnecessary bills or expenses,” he added.
