Nollywood actress, Mary Remmy Njoku has issued a note of warning to Nigerian women about the festive season.
The mother of three who issues out a dose of motivational advice on her Instagram page told women to beware of abroad-based returnees this Christmas.
According to her, many of them are not what they claim to be. She went on to recall a personal experience with a returnee who had a “weird accent and pocket full of lies”.
Mary Remmy said the man claimed to run a big law firm in London.
However, years later, she saw him in a barber shop in the UK and he couldn’t look her in the eye.
She wrote:
“Chai! Xmas don reach o I remember that year when an Area Bros came back from Jand with a weird accent and pocket full of lies.
‘I run a big law firm in London’ I wasn’t into him cos his ‘yarns’ were inconsistent. And despite the ‘supposed’ BLOW, he wasn’t smart.
“Well, I saw him at a barber shop in London few years later and he couldn’t even look at me. The shoes didn’t lie. UK is real.
Well I said a prayer for him. Hope he is OK wherever he is.
In her caption, she wrote:
“So, be careful with IJGB (I just got back) this Christmas,” she wrote. “I wanna gonna is not a measure of one’s intelligence or success.”
