Laide Bakare, a businesswoman and actress in Nigerian hollywood, has pushed the federal government of Nigeria to abolish the need that visitors to the nation pay for the Covid-19 immunisation.
In a live stream, the actress said that other industrialised nations no longer accept the payment.
“This nonsense that is meant to have been stopped for how long? I am really pissed,” said Laide Bakare.

“It is a rip-off, how much is N70,000 that they are collecting because of this Covid-19 test nonsense. The portal is not even working very well. I stayed more than three hours trying to fill this form. What I know is that this really needs to be taken care of! Scrap this Covid test verification. I was coming from America to London and there was nothing like that but from London to Nigeria you are asking us to pay even after being fully vaccinated.
“I’m not even speaking for myself now but for others who are also being exploited.”
