A Nigerian woman has shared how a close acquaintance of hers met a sad ending in the United Kingdom for choosing a secluded lifestyle.

In a viral video, the TikToker, @rca228, who is currently in the UK, narrated the gruesome ordeal of her friend while lamenting the growing trend of extreme independence among Nigerians in the diaspora.

According to the lady, the friend was a successful banker in the UK who had "everything" and was independent. However, following a bad breakup years ago, she withdrew from society and even cut connections with her family.

Lady recounts friend's lonely death in UK

She said:

"This lady was the kind of person that, no matter what you do, she wouldn't mingle. I’ve tried, you know, just to at least call and know how she was doing. She always tried to put herself away, not just from me, but even her family members and everything. What I know about her is that the last time I had an in-depth conversation with her, she said she had a broken relationship when she newly came to this country, and ever since then, she didn't want to mingle. Ever since then: dating 'No,' children 'No.'"

Sadly, she said because of her secluded lifestyle, no one in her community knew the day when she passed away until some days later.

The TikToker said that she (and the community) found out that the friend was dead inside her own apartment four days later.

She shared the condition they found the body of the lady:
