Actor Chinedu Ikedieze Laments Over Increasing Requests For Money In His image

Popularly Nigerian Nollywood actor, Chinedu Ikedieze, known as Aki, has warned people who frequently message him online to stop requesting money from him.
Actor Chinedu expressed his annoyance in a video on his Instagram page on Monday where he highlighted the messages he receives from people pleading for both large and paltry sums of money.
He claimed that one of his outrageous beggars had asked him for $35,000, which is 27 million, while the other requested $12,000 to open a shop.
He said that he cannot continue to give in to demands from the public, because doing so would cause his financial situation to collapse given how bad the nation’s economy is currently doing.
He said,” Guys I’m not happy this thing is getting out of hand, how can you people turn my DM to a bank? If I open my dm every time is bros please, it's too much."
“The way you guys are asking us for money is like we don't have responsibility, if I start to share the money like that, it will finish."
“Anytime I open my message is either I see bros I need 40 thousand, bros my mother is sick. Imagine someone was begging me for $35,000 that is like 27million another one was asking me for 12 thousand dollars that he wants to open a shop.”
The actor added that some of the people swarming his DM are not Nigerians.
“The problem is that it is not just Nigerians. Abeg now. You guys have made it look like we have this money packed somewhere and it is a must that we cater to your needs; No! It is not a must. You see this economic crunch is biting harder, everybody."
“Guys abeg. Take am easy. You have opened an office on my head. Do not make it look like if we do not do it something will happen to us."
“Do not carry that office you have opened in my DM to the app – Threads.”
