Top 10 Luxury cars Nigerian Billionaires drive

Nigeria turned 61 yesterday, 1st October 2021, and a lot of people took to social media to express their grievances about the country and how things are bad, and the state of the economy at the moment, all valid reasons. Not many people wished Nigeria a happy birthday, and in all honesty, they cannot be blamed. At least Nigeria is a grown country of 60 years and should be able to show something for it but, we’re looking.

As some people were complaining about the state of the economy, Davido bought a Lamborghini Huracan Coupe, worth N65 million. Also, Femi Otedola copped 3 Ferrari’s for his daughters, Tolani, Dj Cuppy, and Temi. They are not the only ones, because celebrities are always buying cars, rich people in Nigeria are always flexing. So no matter how bad it is, someone somewhere in Nigeria is having fun.

As bad as persons say Nigeria is, there are some others who are living their lives and enjoying it here in Nigeria. To show this, they buy luxury cars, luxury houses, designer outfits, and the latest technological gadgets. A rich person is not defined by the type of car they drive, some people prefer a luxurious life, while some others don’t like to showcase luxury.

If Mark Zuckerberg had passed by me on the road when he visited Lagos, and I did not know who he looked like I would never have guessed he was the one. He was dressed in simple cloth pieces and nothing shiny. So some people prefer to be simple, while others prefer luxury. No option is bad, it’s their money so they choose how to spend it.

But the wild thing is that you can be stuck in Lagos traffic, and when you look to your left you may see a Tesla also stuck in traffic with you because that’s how crazy Nigeria can be.
