I ask again, “How do you people come up with such outrageous bills?
In a continuation of her post, the actress hinted that the tax bill from Lagos state could be as a result for her non-support for the All Progressives Congress in the 2023 general elections. As she Instead pitched her tent with Labour Party and its presidential candidate Peter Obi.
She continued“I stand & re stan obediently on my beliefs. I can never be pressured or shaken. I will never bow down to tribal bigots… I want a better Nigeria, I don’t care whose ego gets bruised. We can not all believe in the same thing. I see no tr!be. I only see my country. I’m a Nigerian… I am not afraid of death, for that is inevitable. I will never be afraid to air my opinion, for that is my right…
“I have no enemies. We may not all believe in the same course, we may not see things the same way but you’re not my enemy bcos at the end of the day, either, good or bad. We’re in together. We’re all citizens of Nigeria.
“I have empathy for my country & not for stomach infrastructure. If after 8 years Nigeria has renewed hope, then my beliefs may change, but till then, I obediently stand on my beliefs. If you didn’t make me, you can’t break me, you can take the body but never my soul”.
