It's hard being a celebrity in Lagos - Singer Spyro cries out

Nigerian musician, Oludipe Oluwasanmi David, popularly known as Spyro, has expressed his frustration with having to dole out cash to people who request frequently. The pop star noted that he spends an average of 100,000 naira on cash gifts every single time he leaves his home. This situation, he laments, has become problematic for him as he is expected to oblige financial requests everywhere he goes to because he is a popular figure. The 34-year-old Lagos-born entertainer added that someone was so furious after being told to wait until the following day for a cash request to be fulfilled that the person resorted to raining insults on him.
