Sensational Nigerian singer, Simisola Kosoko, popularly known as Simi, has revealed the real reason why Africans relocate out of the continent to search for a better life.

Simi, in a series of tweets, said most people don’t want to leave their family and life behind in Africa, but are left with no other choice because they don’t want to die feeling hopeless in Africa.

According to her, African leaders who are supposed to create a comfortable and sane clime for their citizens are only concerned about themselves and their families.

She said they don’t care about the suffering of the masses and are only concerned about filling their pockets with public funds.

Speaking from a place of pain, the ‘duduke’ crooner wrote,

“Black Africans have to fight and fight for space and respect and survival everywhere they go because the one place that is their birth right is hard on their lives. One would think this would make African leaders wake tf up and help us fight for our dignity.

Who really wants to go a land of strangers, away from everyone and thing they love? People that want to survive. Nobody chooses that life because it’s good or easy. They just don’t want to die feeling that helpless.

But these leaders don’t love their country. They don’t love their people. They only love their greedy bellies. They only care about their own children. They only care about their families. As long as their wickedness is not happening to them, why stop?”
