“Can your marriage stand the test of time abroad?” — Rev Ajayi questions Nigerian couples planning to ‘japa

A Nigerian clergywoman based in the United Kingdom, Reverend Esther Ajayi, has addressed married Nigerian couples planning to relocate abroad.

The General Overseer of the Love of Christ Generation (C & S) Church, London, spoke about the current rave among Nigerians to ‘japa’ while preaching in her church recently.

She questioned if married couples are ready to face the reality of living in a foreign clime, and if their marriage can stand the test of time abroad.

According to her, there is a wide difference between the way things work in Nigeria and abroad, so they should think properly before making the decision.

She further stated that some people live better lives in Nigeria but because of the obsession to ‘japa’, they leave Nigeria and end up living average lives abroad.

She further advised them to reconsider moving abroad if God is not leading them to migrate from Nigeria.
