In a candid interview with Arise TV, former Minister of Transport, Rotimi Amaechi, shared his perspective on Nigerians seeking opportunities abroad, stating that he often discourages them from leaving the country.
Amaechi emphasized that while foreign countries may offer typical nine-to-five jobs, Nigeria provides unique opportunities where individuals can "just wake up and become a Minister, a Senator, or a Governor."
Expressing uncertainty about how the country operates, he urged those seeking opportunities to stay in Nigeria. Amaechi's viewpoint raises questions about the balance between emigration for conventional employment and the unpredictability of climbing the political ladder within the country.
