Afrobeats artist Spyro, also known as Oludipe Oluwasanmi David, admitted to spending more than N15 million each year on beggars.
He shared this information while expressing frustration about the persistent requests for help from fans.
Spyro mentioned that people reach out to him for assistance, both online and offline, without offering anything in return.
Despite his generous nature, Spyro recounted a negative encounter with a stranger who insulted him for not being able to give money at that particular moment.
On his Instagram page, he wrote, “[It’s] really hard being a celebrity in Lagos. I told a guy I didn’t have anything and would see him the next day. He rained insults on me. Every day I step out of my house, I spend a minimum of N100k on gifts. Now let’s do the maths: let’s say I go out three times a week, that’s N300k per week, making N1.2m per month, and that’s about N15 million a year. Kilode.”
