A Nigerian man who once secured a fully funded scholarship to study in Norway has been deported and now earns ₦4,000 daily packing waste.
This was revealed in a post shared on X (formerly Twitter) by user @PH_Socials, which included videos of the man recounting his journey from studying abroad to his current situation in Nigeria.
According to him, he arrived in Norway on a scholarship but later got involved in drug trafficking after mingling with individuals engaged in substance abuse.
He admitted to transporting drugs from Norway to Italy, which initially earned him praise from some compatriots.
However, his actions eventually led to his arrest and deportation by Norwegian authorities for smuggling drugs into the country.
In a follow-up video, the man disclosed that he now survives by packing waste for residents, earning ₦4,000 daily.
He expressed hope of landing a government job to improve his situation.
His words:
“I went to Norway through scholarship. I met some UK people smoking white crystal and marijuana. One Bayelsa man told me to start moving drugs.”
“I moved the first drop from Norway to Italy, and during the second one, the Bayelsa people in Norway were celebrating me. Not long after, I was convicted. They said Nigerians are bringing drugs into their country. I was expelled and sent back to Bayelsa.”
“Now, I throw away people’s dirty every morning. They pay me ₦4,000 daily. I’m hoping for a government job.”
