“Is it not you people that campaigned for this regime?” – Netizens slam Actress Yewande Adekola as she laments bitterly over the price of Garri (Video)

Yewande Adekola complains about the price of Garri

Social media users have slammed Yoruba actress Yewande Adekola Abiodun as she laments bitterly over the price of Garri.

The movie star, in a video posted on her Instagram page, lamented over how a bag of Garri is now being sold for N80,000. She noted how Garri used to be a poor man’s food, but now, it has become expensive.

She pondered how the average Nigerian is surviving, especially now that the price of Garri has skyrocketed. The movie star added that if the poor man can no longer afford to buy it, then something has happened to the country.

“Something just happened to me right now, and I think I need to share this with you guys. I don’t know if you’re aware of it, but a bag of Garri is now N80,000. Is Garri not meant to be a poor man’s food or an average Nigerian’s food? Like our safety food when we don’t have money. So, if Garri is now N80,000 per bag, how will the poor man survive? If the poor man can no longer afford to buy Garri, something has happened o’.

However, some social media users weren’t pleased with her complaints as they noted how she and some of her colleagues voted for the President.

Similarly, in February, Debbie Shokoya lamented over the cost of living in the country. She questioned which country she could easily relocate to as she noted how a bag of rice was being sold at N90k.

Debbie noted how rich people are also complaining, which has left her with several questions as everyday things get clearer to her.

During the festive period, Mary Njoku had cried out over the hardship and state of the economy in the country, revealing that she went shopping and spent N100k at the supermarket, yet her trolley was not full.

A bewildered Mary noted how the ‘Sapa’ (poverty) in Nigeria is on a high as she questioned what the minimum wage is.

Mercy Aigbe, on her part, made a passionate appeal to the son of the President, Seyi Tinubu, noting how people are hungry and dying in the country over the economy. She asserted that the present situation of the country is terrible, and she urged the government to do something about it.
