We don’t put our dads in retirement homes in Africa. I can never do it — Rapper Phyno



Nigerian hip hop stsr, Chibuzor Nelson Azubuike, popularly known as Phyno, has expressed his concern on the trend of relocating elderly parents to retirement homes or residential care facilities abroad.

Speaking In My Own Opinion podcast, the rapper said: “We don’t put our dads in retirement homes in Africa. I know where I come from, and I know how we treat our fathers. I wouldn’t put my dad in a retirement home, even if he was here (abroad). I would rather find a way around it.

Here in the Western world, when you put your dads in retirement homes, you pay for it, right? In Africa, we would rather pay people to look after him at home than put him in a facility with others. That’s not it works, and it never will.”
