Vee, who is part British, claimed that life in Nigeria is becoming more difficult and that she is unable to escape to the UK because their economy is identical.
She wrote: “£10 is N17200. Wonderful. Absolutely wonderful. Nigeria is really giving it to us hard. No rubber. No lubricant. Can’t even run to the UK because they’re getting bent over too. Two twins.”
