DO WE REALLY KNOW WHAT WE’VE DONE TO OURSELVES ?
Many nigerian families will never be together again. Not because they don’t want to be- but because they simply can never be together again.
First born is in Canada.Second born is in Dubai.Third born is in Australia.Fourth born is in New York.Last born is in UK.
Parents are in Nigeria making trips once in a while to see them in the different countries.
They are all getting married and having children who will never really meet or know each other – virtual cousins!!. Their best shot is group video calls which will almost never happen because there’s no convenient regular time that works for everybody due to different global time zones.
When their parents die, their homes become desolate, and in no time, the family name become a distant memory.
They’ve all had to travel because Nigeria failed them and they needed to leave to another country where they can have a shot at life and their children won’t suffer what they went through.
This is the high price of japa that you can never put a financial value on that very few people talk about. The destruction of families and the tearing of siblings apart.
This is the silent evil that our leadership has bequeathed to us all. Even their own families are not left out.
One day we will realise the extent of the damage and the destruction that we have done to ourselves 
So, the whole truth is simply to know that japa maybe worth it, but it is also a journey that comes with a lot of pain and a high price.
