Popular actor and singer, Idowu Adeyemi, also known as Yhemolee, has lamented over the worsening economic situation in the country.
He stated that the normal busy Lagos has now become traffic-free due to the hike in fuel prices.

Sharing his woes on the situation, the thespian noted that even the rich are feeling the effects of the economic crisis.
He stated that foreign currencies such as the British Pounds and the United States Dollar have gained massively against the Nigerian Naira in the exchange market recently.
Yhemolee lamented that many Nigerians can no longer go to their places of work and businesses because of the hike in the pump price of fuel.
Speaking via Instagram, he said, “This administration brutal o. Even the rich are crying.
“Yesterday, I spent 15 minutes from Oniru, VI [Victoria Island] to Lekki Camp, that’s almost to Epe. 15 minutes, road clear on a working day. People didn’t go out? You didn’t see petrol?
“One Pound is now N1100, one dollar is N850. It cost me N52,000 to fill my Range Rover and N32,000 for my Chevrolet. That is N80,000 plus for petrol of the car. And I will fill both two times a week. N160,000 in a week for petrol times four that is N640,000 in a month.”
