A Nigerian man in the diaspora, Adedoyin, has revealed that his parents paid over £15,000 (over N30 million at the current exchange rate) for his studies in the UK without any student loans.
Adedoyin disclosed this on TikTok in reaction to the ongoing UK riots. Adedoyin said the government did not hand him his degree. He wrote: “We didn’t get our degrees handed over to us like you all want the government to do for you.”
He took a swipe at the far-right rioters who claimed immigrants were stealing their jobs.
