I received N80m tax bill after revealing my weekly income – Food critic Opeyemi Famakin
Celebrity food critic, Opeyemi Famakin, has revealed why he would no longer discuss his finances.
He said that he received N80 million tax bill hours after revealing his income in an interview.
Famakin disclosed that the Lagos State Internal Revenue Service, LIRS, contacted him through email in less than 48 hours after the revelation.
He made this known in his latest interview with media personality, Chude Jideonwo, while discussing his financial journey as a food critic.
Narrating the unexpected encounter and the timing, Famakin suggested that his public statement prompted the attention from the tax authority.
“Two days after I mentioned my finances, LIRS sent me an email, they billed me N80 million, I paid it o. It was like play.
“However, I would never talk about my finances again. Even though I told them ‘allegedly,’ they said no, but let’s not discuss it. I’m now a proud tax payer.”
The food critic had sparked online reactions in 2022, after claiming to be the highest paid food critic in Nigeria with N9 million earning in a bad week.

I just asked Dami if anyone else slept with her after we broke up and she fainted – Portable breaks silence
*Unfollow her again
By Francesca Hangeior
Controversial Nigerian singer Portable is currently the talk of the internet following his reconciliation with his girlfriend, Queen Dami.
Recall that the former Oyo Queen had reconciled with Portable, months after their social media spat, which left many dragging her.
Defending his woman, Portable slammed trolls for trying to destroy his home.
According to reports online, the mother of one has been reportedly rushed to the hospital after fainting. A clip making rounds online showed the beauty entrepreneur lying on the lap of her friend as she was been driven to the hospital.
Reacting to the video, Portable revealed that Dami fainted after he queried her over her body count. He stated that he asked her if she had slept with anyone else during their fallout and she fainted.
“I asked her if anyone slept with her when we broke up, and she fainted. Why will she faint? No be you say you wan love me back? Before you say you no love me, now love don come. So love dey go dey come? Love come na scam, love no come na scam. I just asked her if they tear her or no tear her. And she fainted”.
The lovebirds have since unfollowed each other on Instagram.
