Biola revealed that it was too expensive for her to keep up with.

“I can’t keep buying fabrics, doing makeup, fueling my car and still spray money, I can’t afford it," she said in a video that has since gone viral.
"Please nobody should take this personally with me, I cannot afford it please! If you give me, I’ll gladly make my Iro and Buba to come honor you. I have enough responsibilities than spending so much on clothes that I can hardly wear twice… common! Party has never been a form of relaxation for me, if I’m coming to your party, it’s just because I want to honor you and I can honorably do that without spending so much," she added in a caption.

Aso Ebi is a uniform dress or dressing code that is traditionally worn by the Yoruba people and is an indicator of cooperation, camaraderie, and solidarity.
