A while ago, Woli Arole took to social media to express outrage over the high cost of food items in the country.
The comedian, in a video he shared on his Instagram page, questioned if the Vice President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo and the current Minister of Agriculture are not aware of the price change.
Arole pointed out that things are very expensive and a lot of people are hungry. Using beans as an example, the comedian wondered if beans are no longer being planted, but mined due to its outrageous price in the market.
Speaking further, Arole stated that he can not blame the sellers because they are also affected by the increase in price.
