Daddy Freeze Warns Married Nigerians Over 40: “Avoid Japa, Especially to US and UK”

Media personality Daddy Freeze has stirred fresh conversation after issuing a strong warning to married Nigerians over the age of 40 who are considering relocating abroad.

Speaking on The Honest Bunch Podcast, Daddy Freeze advised couples in that age group to “avoid any type of abroad” for now, particularly destinations like the United States and the United Kingdom.

According to him, relocation should only be considered under two conditions: “one is, the suffering in Nigeria is unbearable or the enjoyment promised abroad is much more than anything you can have here.” Outside of these reasons, he urged married couples to stay put.

He specifically cautioned, “Avoid America and avoid the UK for now. If you are married, avoid relocating for now.”

Explaining his stance, Daddy Freeze pointed to immigration challenges, noting that couples may give birth to children abroad yet struggle with citizenship issues due to evolving immigration policies.

He also alleged that some couples resort to drastic measures to secure residency. “What couples now do is to divorce each other and get married to other partners for papers, especially in the UK and US, except one of them is a citizen,” he said.

Raising a critical question about the emotional toll of such arrangements, he asked, “How many marriages can survive a divorce and remarriage of the same couple?”
