Nollywood actor Chinedu Ikedieze, popularly known as Aki, has generated reactions after expressing surprise at the cost of watching a World Cup match at a viewing centre in the United States.

In a video posted on social media, the actor revealed that fans were being charged $30 to watch the game on a large screen, despite not being inside a stadium.

Ikedieze pointed out that they had come to watch a match at a venue that was simply equipped with a big screen rather than at an actual stadium, questioning the $30 entry fee being charged.

He appeared amused by the situation, noting that even the car park cost $30, and joked about the expensive pricing while acknowledging that they ultimately proceeded to watch the game regardless.
