A few days back, Uche Elendu had lamented the price of a crate of eggs. The movie star revealed that a crate of eggs is being sold for N6000 in her area. Calling out the government, she told them to ban eggs in the country as she expressed doubts that a fowl laid the egg.

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.

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.
