- The man said he has been able to give birth to many children while living abroad but he has not brought them home
- He said the reason he has not brought his children is because he cannot afford the transportation fare
A man shared a video in which he was heard lamenting his inability to bring his children home from abroad.
The man said he moved abroad over 30 years ago in search of a better life but things didn’t work as planned.
According to the man identified on TikTok as @55roderick4 said he has given birth to many children.
However, he lamented that he has not been able to bring the children home so that they will know their native land.
He said the reason he has failed to come home with his children was because he cannot afford the transportation fare.
He said:
“It has been over 30 years I left my homeland to travel to Europe and seek for greener pastures. For over 30 years, I was able to give birth to many children. Now, throughout this period of time, I have not been able to take my children to Africa. I haven’t been able to take them to Africa at any time. Every end of the year, we spend it here in Europe. It is not as if I do no want to take my children to go see their homeland where their parents came from. But the reality is, I don’t have the money to sponsor that trip.”
The man said there are many people like him living in Europe and who are not able to bring their children home.
He said the America and European dreams that take people abroad are fast becoming illusions.
