A Nigerian man has gone public with his frustration after claiming that his business and investment in Abuja were suddenly destroyed without prior notice.
According to his emotional account, he had taken a loan of £75,000 from the United Kingdom to establish a business in Nigeria, following repeated calls by the government encouraging citizens in the diaspora to return home and invest. However, he alleges that the same system has now left him devastated after his property was reportedly demolished without warning.
“I’m actually thinking of counting my losses, packing my things, tearing my Nigerian passport, and going back,” he said, expressing deep disappointment. He further claimed that he knows others who have taken drastic steps out of frustration after facing similar situations.
The incident has sparked reactions online, with many Nigerians sympathizing with his situation and criticizing what they describe as poor communication and lack of protection for investors. Others are calling for clearer regulations, proper notice before demolitions, and stronger safeguards to encourage both local and diaspora investments.
As of now, there has been no official response addressing the specific claims, but the story has reignited broader concerns about the ease of doing business and investor confidence in the country.
