“If you have money, you’ll live like a king” – IJGB man sparks buzz, says Nigeria is better than UK

An abroad-based Nigerian man, popularly referred to as an IJGB (I Just Got Back), has sparked massive reactions online after boldly declaring that Nigeria offers a better lifestyle than the United Kingdom, especially for those with money.

In a viral video making the rounds on X (formerly Twitter), the visibly excited IJGB could barely contain his amazement as he reflected on his recent stay in Nigeria.

According to him, his experience was so enjoyable that explaining everything in detail could “land him in big, big trouble.”

The man praised the warmth and hospitality he received, saying he was treated like royalty everywhere he went. From the reception to the lifestyle, he insisted that Nigeria delivered an experience he never imagined.

“This is not a real place. People that think London is where it’s at, Nigeria has everything you need. People greet me like I’m a king. The girls here are beautiful. They have everything you need,” he said.

He stressed that financial comfort completely transforms life in Nigeria, noting that anyone with money is guaranteed top-tier entertainment, hospitality, and comfort.

The IJGB also questioned why many Nigerians are eager to relocate overseas, arguing that Nigeria already offers everything people seek in the UK and even more.

Reflecting on his short stay, he revealed that even if he returned to London immediately, he would do so as a happy man because of how much he enjoyed just three days in Nigeria.

His comments have since sparked mixed reactions online. One user wrote, “No lie, Naija is sweet when you have money.” Another added, “No matter how comfortable I am in the diaspora, Naija is where I’ll always come back to when I’m doing well.”
