Nigerian man and family relocate to Canada
Meanwhile, Fox Nigeria previously reported that a Nigerian man had relocated to Canada with his family after selling their two cars.
The man narrated that they had successfully secured their Canadian visas after a long and tedious process and also when he was involved in a minor car accident that damaged his car.
However, that did not stop them from pursuing their dream of relocating to a new country. They decided to sell their two cars and use the money for something else. As shared by @tope1step, they also visited the market to buy some necessary items.
