Alright so I bought this slippers at ikota shopping complex but it was too lose but i still bought it because the price was reasonable and i liked it. fast forward i went to this place on admiralty way called the cobblers and to reduce the width they said its 5000 naira. so they said but i will not get it on the same day so i bounced. fast forward i went to a shop and asked the security guard if he knew any shoe fixers on the streets. he pointed me to one hausa guy sitting by the side of the street. i said how much to reduce the width. he said 200 naira . So i said OK go ahead. so i sat with him by the side of the road and watched all the effort and time he put into doing the shoe and in my mind i was thinking, this guy is undervaluing his talents. anyway he did a good job and reduced it under an hour. i gave him 5 times what he asked for which is 1000 naira. he was excited.

which brings me back to the title of the thread which is the lekki hustle. one guy on the street is charging 200 while the lekki hustlers want 25 times that amount to do the same job ? its starting to look like this lekki is a scam

I once bought a shirt at same Ikota complex before Stanbic IBTC bank at 12K. The shop was littered with all these shiny nuisance lights that made it impossible for me to decode the shirt is one of those Okrika shirts I can get below N800 for street.


Most people staying in Ago, Iyana Oba, Iyana ipaja are richer and well-to-do than all these fake Lekki people!

LEKKI na just name.
