Reality TV star Natacha Akide, popularly known as Tacha, has weighed in on the harsh economic realities gripping Nigerians.
In a tweet that sparked mixed reactions, the former BBNaija housemate confessed that she’s struggling with mounting expenses. She humorously pleaded with her fans to slip ₦200 million into her hands if they ever see her.
Tacha’s tweet highlighted the growing frustration many Nigerians face, with skyrocketing prices of essential goods since President Bola Tinubu assumed office. While some saw her comment as a lighthearted attempt to relate to her audience, others felt she was subtly asking for financial help.
“I’m going through a lot,” Tacha wrote. “If you see me, just squeeze ₦200 million into my hand.” Her statement struck a chord with fans who flooded social media with their reactions.
Some sympathized, acknowledging the shared struggles, while others poked fun at the audacious request.
One user, “@IamTheIroko”, commented, “This is how every Nigerian feels right now.” Another, “@stockupz”, added, “Queen T, squeeze ₦20k for me too. I don see enough shege! We rise by lifting others.”
Others couldn’t resist teasing her. “@Ein_Motivation” quipped, “Look at how someone is using style to beg.” Another fan, “@Marcopolo7707”, joked, “You’re calling ₦200 million like it grows on trees!”
Tacha isn’t the first celebrity to complain about the economic pinch. Stars like actresses Carolyna Hutchings and Mercy Aigbe, along with comedian Nasboi, have also shared their frustrations.
The rising costs of food and other essentials have left many Nigerians, both ordinary citizens and celebrities, struggling to keep up.
Despite the jokes and criticisms, Tacha’s tweet has shed light on a universal truth: no one is immune to the current financial challenges.
Whether intentional or not, her statement has opened a conversation about the shared experiences of Nigerians navigating tough times.
Fans continue to engage with her humor-filled plea, with some even hoping she’ll turn the tables and offer them financial assistance instead!
