Cheta Nwanje, Lead Partner at SBM Intelligence, said the Japan wave currently underway in Nigeria can be seen as both good and bad.

Cheta Nwanje explained that although the trend shows negative results in the short term due to leaving out a skilled section of Nigerians. This would prove to be very beneficial to the economy in the long run through remittances and foreign policy collaboration with politicians of Nigerian blood in the West.

Further adding that while Nigeria has long been an exporter of people for centuries, the trend towards Japan is because the economy is not generating enough jobs.

This could be useful for creating better jobs and remittances in the future, he said:
