She believes that redirecting their efforts could help alleviate the high fuel prices in the country.
In her words; “Attempting Taco Tuesday in Lagos. Several police stops with random men manhandling me and searching my bag and personal belongings @frankhasaplan.
Lagos Police, let the youth breath for God's sake. If you dedicate this much energy to catching politicians who are looting, fuel will not be #560 Naira today. SMH.”
