An abroad-based Nigerian man has shared an emotional video expressing his frustration over his inability to bring his children to visit their homeland in Africa.

In the video, the man identified on TikTok as @55roderick4 revealed that he left Africa over 30 years ago in search of greener pastures in Europe.

Despite having several children while abroad, he lamented that financial constraints had prevented him from taking them back home to experience their roots.

The man also highlighted that he is not alone in this predicament, adding that many European Africans face similar challenges.

He further reflected on how the “American and European dreams” that initially draw people abroad are increasingly becoming unattainable for many.

“It has been over 30 years I left my homeland to travel to Europe and seek for greener pastures. For over 30 years, I was able to give birth to many children.

“Now, throughout this period of time, I have not been able to take my children to Africa. Every end of the year, we spend it here in Europe. It is not as if I do not want to take my children to go see their homeland where their parents came from. But the reality is, I don’t have the money to sponsor that trip,” he stated.
