Most celebrities are clueless of anything outside of their rich and affluent world. They don't mind if others suffer under high taxation, they're rich and can afford taxes. That is unless they live here in the US, they their lawyers and accountants find loopholes so they pay almost no taxes at all. Everyone else ends up suffering.
Sad to hear about that increase in taxes there, that's just wrong...
Celebrities will always have some sort of deals that helps them to continue paying less. In Nigeria most of them are in liason with the government and they're in neck deep into corrupt practices. Unfortunately the messes adores and worships them and most people are blinded. This is actually the problem of Nigeria: the inability to recognize destructive people/celebrities.
The hike in price is over 200% unfortunately the new government is making sure they impoverish and put people in poverty.
