In his clip, he pointed out that each time he returned to Nigeria, people tended to regard him with admiration simply because he had travelled out of the country.

He explained that in their eyes he appeared so successful, largely due to the general belief that anyone who lived abroad enjoyed an elevated lifestyle.

However, he disclosed that his daily routine in the UK involved night-time labour, which he took on in order to meet his basic needs and maintain stability.

The short clip showed him moving through his workplace at night, showing the kind of duties that filled his shifts.

He shared that his work schedule revolved around late hours, and that he used those earnings to manage his responsibilities.

"In Nigeria I am a big boy but in UK, I am a night shift worker," he captioned the post.
