A Nigerian woman living in the United Kingdom has said she would refuse even a £15 million offer to relocate permanently to Nigeria, grounding her decision in the painful loss of two children, which she blames on medical negligence back home.

The woman, who described herself as an indigene of Ogun State, spoke in a street interview shared on social media by a user identified as DammieDammie. In the video, she is asked whether she would accept £200,000 on the condition that she must return to Nigeria and never come back to the UK.

She immediately dismissed the proposal, explaining that her move abroad was never about chasing money. “Unfortunately, I didn’t migrate from Nigeria because of money,” she said, stressing that no financial incentive could outweigh what she had endured.

As the interviewer raised the hypothetical offer to £300,000, then £500,000, and finally to £15 million, she remained unmoved. “You can’t even pay me enough to go back,” she insisted, her tone firm but emotional.

Pressed to explain why she would turn down such life-changing sums, the woman revealed that she had lost two children in Nigeria in separate incidents she attributes to failures within the healthcare system. “I lost two children to medical negligence. Back to back in two years,” she said.

She declined to go into detail, saying reliving the events would be too traumatic. “I really don’t want to say much on it because I’m just going to break down,” she added.

According to her, medical professionals in the UK often struggle to believe the circumstances she describes. “Every time I tell them here, to the doctors here, that my children died because of this, they all ask me, ‘Am I joking?’” she recounted.

The woman contrasted her past experiences in Nigeria with the care she received during the birth of her son in the UK. Pointing to the boy beside her, she said, “When I had my son, I know my son was, if he was back in Nigeria, he would have died also. But because I had him here, there was medical attention. They did what was needed to be done and he’s fine.”

She acknowledged that medical errors occur everywhere, including in Britain, but argued that the frequency and severity are markedly different. “I know it happens here also but the ratio is very, very low,” she said, reaffirming that no amount of money could persuade her to risk a return to the system she holds responsible for her deepest losses.
