Taking to her social media on Monday, the former Big Brother Naija housemate, also known as TBaj, shared her personal struggles while living and working abroad.

“I hated working a 9-5 in America so bad. I would spend months counting down to Detty December, God Abeg,” she wrote.

The TV star admitted that her happiest moments were tied to the festive period, especially when she could return home to Nigeria.

She revealed that she often questioned whether to quit her job entirely and move back permanently.

“My everyday thoughts — I’m happier in Nigeria, should I just quit my job and move there?”

Her post quickly sparked reactions across social platforms, especially among Nigerians debating the growing ‘Japa’ movement—a wave of young professionals emigrating in search of better opportunities abroad.

Many resonated with her honesty, sharing similar sentiments about the cultural and emotional toll of 9-5 life in the diaspora.

Others reflected on how different the conversation might be if the economic and social conditions in Nigeria were more favourable.
