Movie thespian Mary Njoku has lamented the exorbitant costs of living in Nigeria.
She said the toll paid at Lagos airport gate was too much.
The movie star, in an Instagram post, bitterly complained she paid N664 for a toll gate, asking if this is now the new normal or she was cheated.
The mother of three questioned how people from underprivileged backgrounds are surviving in the economy.
She also added it now takes more than the minimum wage to fill the tank of a car.
She wrote: “I just paid 664 nairas for toll gate. Na so e don be? Abi Dem cheat me. It now takes more than the minimum monthly wage to fill the tank of a car. How are people surviving?”
This is not the first time the wife of businessman Jason Njoku is lamenting the economic downturns.
Weeks back, Mary wondered in a late-night post if her fans were awake as she had been unable to sleep over the country’s woes.
She also asked how they were coping with the economic downturn.
The screen diva wrote: “Who is awake? The problem in Nigeria is becoming unbearable. No money. No fuel. No security. Nothing!! How are we coping? The situation don clear sleep for my eyes”.
