In his post, Dr Tolu said when he completed medical school, he had to live with his parents for seven years.
After seven years of earning a meagre salary, he decided it was time to seek greener pastures abroad.
The man stated that he was earning less than N180,000 while working as a medical doctor in Nigeria.
When he relocated, the salary he got for six months was more than what he was paid in Nigeria for seven years.
His words:
"After Medical school, I moved back in with my parents. Lived with them for 7 more years until I was almost 30 years. Didn't buy a Car. Worked several jobs, sometimes 2 jobs at the same time. During this time, no job ever paid me up to N185,000 a month. 7 years o. Saved enough to write exams & move to the UK. 6 months' salary in the UK was more than all my 7 years' salary in Nigeria COMBINED."

If you don't belong to the NEPO babies League, your surest route of the generational poverty is japa legitimately. Your children will thank and pray for you in future. Don't waste that opportunity, japa oooo."
