“You’re mad if you have N20M in Nigeria and you japa” – Aremu Afolayan, Baba Tee condemn ‘japa’ mentality after seeing family sleeping in car park abroad

Famous Nollywood actors, Aremu Afolayan and his colleague, Baba Tee berate the Nigerian mentality of ‘Japa’ as they record a family sleeping in a car park abroad.

A video making the rounds on social media captured the unfavourable conditions of a family who sought shelter in the car park of a building.

Baba Tee, who was accompanied by his friend, Aremu Afolayan urged on the importance of proper planning before relocating abroad.

While sharing the video, Baba Tee emphasized that the family is not homeless because of drug-related issues, but rather because of financial constraints.

Aremu on the other hand insisted that anyone with the sum of N20M doesn’t need to relocate abroad, let alone sell their property to achieve such an amount for Japa.

“JAPAJAPA or not pls do a proper Arrangement before relocating,” Baba Tee wrote.

The video has since generated tons of reactions as many berated the actors for berating the choices of others.

So don’t bring that discouragement here to those who have their plans sorted.”
