Music star, Davido, has shared what he believes is the motivation for Nigerians seeking childbirth abroad.

Media Talk Africa reports that there has been a trend of upper and middle-class Nigerians giving birth to their children abroad.

Speaking in a recent episode of The Morning Hustle podcast, Davido claimed that giving birth abroad is more or less like buying an insurance policy.

He said children born abroad have access to foreign citizenship, opportunities, good medical care, and quality education, among others.

“Giving birth abroad is a common trend among Nigerians. Apart from having better [medical] facilities overseas, people want to have their kids abroad to save them the hassle of applying for visas,” he said.
