Japa: Shehu Sani advocates returning home amid growing hostility towards Immigrants

Former Nigerian Senator, Shehu Sani, has urged Nigerians to rethink migrating abroad in light of increasing hostility towards immigrants worldwide.

In a post shared on his verified X handle on Sunday, Sani emphasized the value of one’s homeland, stating, “There is no better place than your home. Your poor home is better than the rich home of other people.”

Sani expressed concern about the rising challenges faced by immigrants, adding, “The world is becoming more and more hostile to immigrants. If you Japa and they chase or persecute you, just come back home.”

The term “Japa,” a popular Nigerian slang referring to emigration in search of better opportunities, has gained significant traction as many Nigerians seek to leave due to economic hardships.

Sani’s statement highlights the growing concerns over the treatment of immigrants in foreign countries while encouraging Nigerians to appreciate their homeland and consider returning if they face persecution abroad.
