"Salary don finish?! Ah! Why I give this woman my ATM card?"

The photo and the statement sparked funny reactions among his friends and followers on Facebook. Some congratulated him for even being able to afford the items for his family.

Meanwhile, speaking to Legit.ng, Israel lamented the skyrocketing cost of food items in the market.

He said:

"As a salary earner, it's a whole lot difficult. I mean, I can't imagine civil servants who got their job in the last 5 years. But someone like me who's been in the job for 11 years still earn 74,000 naira. And to be very honest with you, it's not enough to restock for a month. Salary earners are one of the victims of this economy.

"The skyrocketing price of goods is the biggest issue in Nigeria right now. Every day the prices keeps going up. Last month I was buying diaper for my son and it was 7000 naira, only for me to return two weeks later to 9,700 naira. This is the same to virtually everything in the market.

"It's a disheartening situation and we have only a few choices; to endure, hope and manage."
