From NHS to Nigeria
In a video shared on her TikTok handle, @banjo_dess, the young nurse disclosed that she booked a one-way ticket to Lagos immediately after quitting her job.
Sharing her experience, she wrote:
“POV: You resigned from your ICU job in the NHS, booked a one-way ticket to Lagos to focus on your online business and life feels like this.”
Although she did not specify the nature of her online business, Desola appeared excited about her new chapter in Nigeria.
