Award-winning comedian, actor, and producer, Ayo Makun\u00a0has shared his opinion about the Japa syndrome amongst Netizens and how politicians continue to influence it. <\/p>\n
Taking to his Twitter page, Ay opined that the syndrome of relocating overseas tagged as Japa will continue to happen to occur in the country because of corrupt politicians who embezzle money when elected into political positions and have nothing to show off at the end of their tenure. <\/p>\n
He wrote: \u201cNigeria will continue to produce a JAPA generation, not because our land is without milk and honey, but because of evil leaders who usually get into power to gather as much as they can gather for themselves, and then look on and do nothing\u201d.<\/p>\n
Pooja asserts Japa is destroying the foundation of friendship<\/h2>\n
Kemi Filani news reported that media personality, Suliman Pooja Adebayo asserted that the relocation of some Nigerians popularly referred to as \u2018Japa\u2019 is destroying the foundation of friendship.<\/p>\n
Pooja based his assertion on a story he shared about a friend who travelled without informing her friends. These were the same set of friends who bought traditional outfits worth a hundred thousand Naira for her wedding and also organised an expensive bridal shower for her.<\/p>\n
Pooja tweeted: \u201cJapa\u201d is destroying the foundation of our friendships. Her friends bought \u201caso ebi\u201d worth 100K for her wedding, organized a bridal shower for her in a top hotel in Lekki, her wedding lit with videos\/photos trending like CNN & on Sunday, they saw her post with her new husband with UK photos. She didn\u2019t tell ANY of them\u201d.<\/p>\n

And arrange your monies- for jacket, gloves, shawl, boots, cap and then everything else cos when that Freezing breeze slap you, you go dey beg for that heat wey almost melt your face the other day\u201d.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n
