The woman who spoke in a video posted by @91productionsuk said she would be 96 in November, noted that she is the oldest woman in her village and family.

She said she has been living in the UK since 2002, but noted that returning to Nigeria might be hard since her children live abroad.

She said she cannot manage living in the village alone since her children are outside the country.

Her words:

"I'm not a young woman. By November, I will be 96 years. I want to go home and stay in the village till whatever will happen. I'm the oldest woman in the village, therefore, I want to be in the village. But staying in the village while my children are outside, I cannot manage it alone. That is why I'm very anxious. I'm praying that God will do everything so that I will go back to Nigeria. I have some of my children here. But I don't want to stay with them for a long time. I have stayed enough. I came here 2002. I'm more than 20 years here. Therefore I'm getting bored. I'm getting tired."
