Kunle Remi Raises Alarm Over Economic Hardship Says He Is Mentally Stressed
Nollywood actor Kunle Remi has voiced strong concerns over the current economic hardship in Nigeria, revealing that the situation is taking a serious toll on his mental well-being and business operations.
In a video shared on Instagram, the actor expressed frustration over the rising cost of fuel and persistent power outages across the country. He described the situation as overwhelming, noting that many Nigerians are struggling to cope with the increasing cost of living.
Kunle Remi admitted that he is mentally stressed due to the harsh economic realities. He explained that basic necessities like petrol and electricity have become too expensive, making daily life and business activities more difficult.
The actor highlighted how the situation is directly affecting his business and staff. According to him, some of his employees have been unable to resume work because of the high cost of transportation. He noted that transport fares have increased significantly, making it hard for workers to afford daily commuting.
He also pointed out that salaries are no longer enough to meet rising expenses, as the cost of living continues to increase over a short period. This, he said, is putting pressure on both employers and employees.
Speaking further, Kunle Remi criticised the state of Nigeria’s energy sector. He questioned why a resource-rich country continues to struggle with fuel supply and electricity, stressing that the situation should not be this difficult.
The actor also addressed the common belief that celebrities should avoid discussing politics or national issues. He rejected that idea, saying that Nigerians can no longer afford to remain silent. According to him, citizens need to speak up, ask questions, and demand better governance.
He expressed confusion over Nigeria’s dependence on limited refinery operations despite having the capacity for more. He noted that the lack of proper support for existing refineries has contributed to the ongoing fuel crisis.
Kunle Remi’s comments reflect the growing frustration among Nigerians facing economic challenges. His message has resonated with many citizens who are dealing with similar struggles related to rising fuel prices, transportation costs, and unstable power supply.
As the situation continues, voices like Kunle Remi are adding to the national conversation, calling for urgent attention to the country’s economic and energy challenges.
