Top Nigerian actress Iyabo Ojo is once again in the news after she called out the Lagos state government over a letter she had received to pay N18 million tax.

Taking to her official Instagram page, the movie star posted a photo of the letter where she was told to pay the huge amount within seven days.

Iyabo then accompanied the post with a lengthy caption where she tackled the Lagos state government on how they came about the ‘outrageous personal income tax’. She lamented about how she has already been made to pay huge amounts for her business, house and other things and was now given seven days to pay N18 million.

Not stopping there, the movie star also recounted how they had previously asked her to come to their office to explain and declare what she earns which she did alongside a tax consultant.

In her words: “You did not respond to my letter bcos you want me to pay an outrageous amount that I do not have…make I go thief ni? I ask again, how do you people come up with such outrageous bills?”

Also in the lengthy note, Iyabo Ojo went ahead to ask the government what they have ever done for her. She explained how she has single-handedly raised her children and others without help from the government but they feel entitled to reap over 100% from where they did not sow.

On a final note she wrote: “I have worked, and I’m still working tirelessly to survive in this country without the support of the government, but …. yet you just sit in your office and come up with different outrageous bills. Nothing is working right in this country, but yet you feel the need to take from where you have not sown ….. Since you guys insist ……You can gladly come and close down my business, arrest me, jail me, or kilI me for all I care … we all will die one day & i will never be afraid of what will eventually be everyone’s faith… what i do not have i can not give.”
