Popular Nollywood actress, Iyabo Ojo, has joined the chorus of voices expressing concern over the growing hardship faced by Nigerians.
The actress took to her platform to react to the government’s decision to provide N8,000 monthly to the impoverished citizens, questioning whether the people have the resilience to endure the tough times until the promised “Renewed Hope” materializes.
As a single mother of two, Iyabo Ojo passionately addressed the dire situation in the country, particularly the prevailing hunger crisis. She criticized the government’s proposed palliative plan, describing it as both a “joke” and a “slap” in the face of the suffering populace.
With the ongoing economic challenges and rising inflation rates, the plight of ordinary Nigerians has worsened, making it difficult for many to afford basic necessities. The government’s N8,000 monthly assistance to the poor has been deemed inadequate and insufficient to alleviate the hardships faced by the majority.
Iyabo Ojo’s comments echo the frustrations felt by many citizens who have been grappling with the impact of the economic downturn.
In her words;
“I hope Nigerians have the strength to hold on b4 we begin to reap this our imaginary Renewed Hope….. There is serious hunger in the land, and 8k monthly to the pøor is definitely not the solution… That is definitely a joke & a slap”.
