Ignition Key Won't Turn - Any ideas?

2003 Fit ( Jazz)
Suddenly It was extremely Hard to put the key in or Take it out and I can't turn the ignition anymore.
I have tried spraying a bit of wd40 in the keyhole and wiggled it in various ways for like 30minutes while also turning the steering wheel in various ways with varying force.
Tried with the Other Key as well, & yeah it's EXTREMELY Hard to put in the key as well

Anyone has had problem like this or maybe knows what's up & what could be done?
Thanks.

Hey eZone, do you have any input? I have the same problem. I have taken to leaving my spare key in the ignition at all times, not ideal. Have not taken the issue to a dealer yet.

Does the green light with the key logo stop flashing when you turn the key on or does it stay flashing even with the key on?
