Nollywood actress and filmmaker Destiny Etiko has spoken out about the recent rise in fuel prices in the country.
Recall that actress Kate Henshaw also expressed her frustration in a tweet regarding the rapid increase in fuel prices by NNPC.
Destiny has shared her concerns about the struggles of her fellow Nigerians, mentioning that many are finding it hard to afford food.
She noted that fuel prices in her area have reached N1200. Despite this, she hoped the recent End Bad Governance protest would improve the tough economic situation.
She wrote:
“Fuel is now N1200 what is going on bikonu I honestly thought the protest was going to help salvage this economic hardship in this country. It’s becoming too hard for a normal layman to eat three square meal, Niger which way.”
