Overhyped and Overpriced

My dear Nigerians, I fail to see why a burger should cost ₦30,000. You call it a luxury burger? What does that even mean? Is the beef massaged daily by the hands of angels? Is the lettuce handpicked by monks in the Himalayas? Or is the bun baked in an oven powered by the Holy Spirit? Because last I checked, it’s just regular beef, regular bread, and vibes. And to the people buying this so-called luxury burger, I don’t have much to say except you’ve been scammed elegantly. But of course, in Nigeria, if something isn’t overpriced, it’s not valuable. Just slap ‘luxury’ on anything, double the price, and watch people rush it like jollof at a wedding. Honestly, we live in a society where people think expensive means better. A ₦2,000 burger and a ₦30,000 burger will enter the same stomach and come out the same way. So, unless that burger gives you superpowers or comes with a visa to Canada, you’re just donating money to the restaurant’s profit margin. At this point, I’m waiting for someone to introduce luxury pure water — maybe bottled directly from the tears of stressed Nigerians. And trust me, people will still buy it.
