Nollywood star, Iyabo Ojo has narrated her ordeal at the hands of Lagos airport officials who extorted the sum of N51, 950 for a COVID-19 test which they never conducted.

The actress who just flew in from Turkey was made to pay for another COVID-19 test in Nigeria hours after the Turkish authority tested her for the virus and being cleared her to fly.

According to her statement on her official Instagram page, the airport officials allegedly rejected her less than a day old test result.
