As Nigeria plunges deeper into economic recession amidst the failure of President Muhammadu Buhari to surmount the crisis, Nigerian youths have been devising extreme measures to escape the scathing hardship.

This unnamed Nigerian young man reported to be in his twenties recently in the month of October married his white lover who is visibly in her 60s.

Rumours have it that the duo met on an international dating site and after a long distance romance which the young man financially benefited from, he decided to tie the knot with her as a viable means of escaping the current economic recession for greener pastures abroad.

The duo sealed their vows at the Federal Marriage Registry, Ikoyi - Lagos and the event was well attended by the family of the young Nigerian.

"Congrats guys. what Green Card has put together let no embassy put asunder" a social media top commenter said.
