Migration Tales

The Lekki Headmaster

Bepo listens to migration stories from others. He admires the hourly payment system abroad but hears alarming rates of professional brain drain. He learns about the sacrifices couples make—one working while the other studies.

While migration offers free healthcare and quality education for children, Bepo also hears tragic tales, like Jare, a former banker now caring for the elderly in London, and Hope, whose marriage collapsed under the strain of migration.
