Elxandre:
The problem is not the cost.

The main issue for me is the president screaming local goods, but rocking ostentatious 'foreign' designers.

From Ferragamo to Gucci....

Na wa for Nigerians that don't read between the lines.

Well said and Thank YOU

There is nothing wrong with our president wearing shoe even more than that price . If you check your phone you use as an average Nigerian compare it with Ghana money you will know how much it is.
The president is being paid salary so he can afford it hundred times .
We should stop focusing on irrelevant things . I know is PDP hand work .
Our president should wear expensive thing , is ok.

i think you are jobless too....

In d inception of this administration,Buhari stated that he will cut d cost of governance,but his action today is not a reflection of his ealier assertion.Buhari should practice what he preaches so as to set a good precedent for Nigerians to copy.

I'm with you on the rest of your yarns about the president's lifestyle but from '$640 to almost $1m'...did you have sleepless night? From 640 you'll need to get to 1000, then 2k and so forth till you reach 1M, no be for here ohh to reach there!

it is overly pathetic that our president is this extravagant wen Nigerians can not afford three square meal.

He earns a lot of Money and he's also the President of Nigeria. I think he deserves more....

Me wey no get much money sef, I wear shoes within the range of 25 & 120$

He ban foreign products from being imported into the country.Meanwhile he patronises foreign products.

I just wish the youth of this nation will channel their energy and time for thing more producting than thing that are of no important God Bless Nigeria.

I don dislike baba of change no be small,but a 600dollars shoes never too much for a whole number one of the most populous black nation in the world na,just imagine him dressed like Oshiomole wey pack "endowment" like anaconda go meet Saudi king who probably will be sitting on a Gold chair ,even ordinary MDs of some firms dey wear weytin pass this one...

Yes he still wants u to go learn trade or resort to farming in u cant withstand the economy heat. Why he skys..... Ok

Please Nairaland should stop promoting these irelevant posts.
This shoe is really cheap for a president.
When some other president wear customised Gucci shoes for several thousand dollars.

That's why he's called our GUCCI president,after all he has been humble and poor all this while #ACCORDINGTO......#
E epp cee cee oya ooo

While many are sent to jail over pot of soup and a tuber of yam...Many are dying looking for what to eat!!!

Buhar: those who can afford it should wear it.

Zombie: sai Baba. Those who can afford it should wear it. Well said.


In another news

Buhari: my fellow Nigerians, I feel your pain. We cutting cost to save the future.

Zombies: sai baba, we stand with you.

Lol, standing bare foot (like GEJ with no shoes) with buhari who is wearing 650usd shoes. What happened to wear Nigeria and buy Nigeria? Oh I forgot the gucci shoes has bullet proof or maybe it's sound proofed or better still has walking and hearing aid. In order words, it's an orthopedic shoe.

In as much as I am not a fan of Mr president, but I think the price of the shoe is too cheap for the president of Nigeria, though he caused it when he declared to the whole world that Nigeria are broke but the shoe is immaterial please.

He doesn't even need to buy it cos there are people ready to give him as gifts sef.
It's ludicrous that some of us still reason backward
Wailers are interesting creatures sha

Who is going to believe that the shoe was given to him. Pmb should leave by example.

GEJ was buying wine of £4,572

Haba! Nigerians want our president to wear N1500 shoe!

Una don start?

dahmie2013:
Do u want a whole president of Nigeria 2 wear shoe of 500 naira? What is wrong with us sef? My president needs 2 be properly packaged, yes dese are tough times, but we are not poor as a Nation & D President must reflect dis always.
Ppl are complaining of recession, yet d owners of Range Rover, G-wagon, haven't stopped driving deir cars. I see dem everyday on d Island. Ppl are still buying new cars, properties & building houses.
Pls free D President! D least he deserves is 2 look good.

Please WHAT is Nigeria?
Does it make shoes?
Does its whole president wear its shoes?
Over to you.

Olamide is in the show biz. Buhari is a president who rode into power on the grounds of, humility, poverty and meekness... that's if you know the meaning of those. I guess buhari is now a Gucci model. Not to forget that there was an article of him refusing to wear a foreign shoe that was given to him as a gift. That's branding him as a contented man who will create environment that will develop indigenous products.

Olu20090:
I'm waiting on yorubas to come and dispute this by searching online for similar but second-hand gucci shoe worth $100, like they did with Aisha Buhari's watch. SMH

My guy PMB is a President for crying out loud, is he suppose to be wearing #5000 shoes
Even my dad can afford a gud shoe of 50k not to talk of d President. No vex oo are u dat broke
Now u ve also introduce ur dirty ethnic/tribalistic nonses talk. Abeg grow up

Nigerians are funny creatures. The same Zimbabwe president that hosted a lavish birthday worth millions of dollars in the midst of poverty ravishing his country was roundly condemn by nigerians. Now your president is wearing a shoe that cost nearly 300k in the midst of severe poverty in the land and you guys are defending this poo.

This was a President that was touted as a symbol of humility and modesty and also who has been advocating for made-in-Nigerian products. Also he claims that he was so poor that he has to borrow money to purchase his nomination forms. So how come such a change of lifestyle?

While "change" is wearing 650usd Gucci shoes...

Am still looking for the definition of "change" because I wonder what has changed.
