Popular Nigerian singer, Portable, has taken a swipe at Nigerians who boast about owning Mercedes Benz and view them as a symbol of class and status.
The Zazu Zeh star, who’s currently in Germany, said the luxury car which many Nigerians take great pride in owning, as evidence of their wealthy status, is not treated with so much importance abroad.
According to him, the exotic cars that many in Nigeria treat with so much care and use to brag to their friends are being used as taxis in Germany.
He shared a video showing him in Dusseldorf, Germany and stated that the same Benz Nigerians brag about back home are used as taxies in the European country.
His words,
“Exotic cars as Taxis ! Car wey u cover with tamponlin . Ilu Osu! Düsseldorf Germany . IKA of AFRICA”.
