A UK-trained Banking and Finance graduate has recounted an emotional story of finding himself under Oshodi bridge in Lagos after 21 years in America in a radio interview.
According to the man, he spent
9 years in London, during which he studied banking and finance.
While living in America, he had
a dream where he saw himself flying and encountered signboards such as “Welcome
to Bahamas” (where he usually went for vacation), another saying ‘Welcome to
London,’ followed by ‘Welcome to Africa,’ and yet another reading ‘Welcome to
Nigeria.’
He woke up from the dream
shouting “Nigeria” deliriously, and his family sent him to a hospital in
California.
After his release, he was sent
back to Nigeria, where his elder siblings picked him up at the airport and took
him to Yaba Psychiatric Hospital
He mentioned that he was dumped
there, and the hospital had to send him out because nobody was coming to take
care of his fees and upkeep.
The man started sleeping under
Oshodi Bridge until the day when the police chased people out from their abode
under the bridge.
During this encounter, the
police prodded him with their guns, asking who he was. In that moment, he
regained his sanity and confused the policemen by telling them he was from
America.
He further shared that he was
eventually taken to a mountain where he spent 6 years undergoing a process of
deliverance.
