I’m spending N1.4m on diesel, singer Rudeboy laments

Nigerian singer pop sensation, Paul Okoye, popularly called Rudeboy, has lamented the deteriorating state of affairs in the country. He revealed that he spent N1.4m on diesel, following the hike in the price of the petroleum product.

Rudeboy, a member of the music group P-Square, made this known on his verified Instagram story on Wednesday, where he described diesel as “the new luxury.” He wrote, “Ordinary house, I’m spending 1.4m Naira for diesel (Generator and diesel.) The new luxury.”
