“Make Sure You Marry Before You Japa”: Woman Living in UK Says Couple Have It Easier Abroad
- A Nigerian woman living in the UK has advised people in the country to marry legally before they relocate abroad
- According to her, it is way easier for couple to go through settling in a foreign country than singles who have no support
- The woman revealed that while one of the couple work, the other can have ample time for their studies
A woman has used a video on TikTok to talk about why Nigerians planning on relocating abroad should first get married.
She went ahead to say that life in the UK is easier for couples than single people. According to her, when a person comes to the foreign country with their spouse, they already have someone that could complement them.

In her words:
"Single people can come to study alone, but you see married people, they are on a whole different cruise entirely...One Spouse will study and can only work 20 hours weekly which is like 2 shifts for most jobs per week while the other Spouse gets a work permit to work as much as they like... The other Spouse that gets that work permit will be financially stable and can support the student Spouse better..."
She stated that she does not see any reason why a spouse would not follow their partner abroad except they have a very good job or business back in Nigeria that can give them more than what they would earn in the UK.
