If our country had supplied basic human needs and our economy had blossomed, one would have time to pursue your hobby, make a bucket list and generally find thing to take up your time or give you an adrenaline rush.

I doubt if any Nigerian will pay even 5m to climb a mountain......how much more 18m. Adventure that can even kpai you
The politicians and other wealthy criminals will.

But personally I don't think it makes sense to charge such an exorbitant fee just to climb a natural mountain.

Nepalese are not Americans. Most of the adventurers are from other countries

There are people that pay way more than that to hunt kill and kill the most endangered species, so this 18mil is nothing, some will even setup a gofundme account to raise the money

Pictured are dozens of climbers waiting at the summit in May, 2019.

This year 11 people died during the spring climbing season with nine attempting the peak from the southern side of in Nepal, making it one of the worst years on the mountain.

Climbers make their way to the summit past a dead body.

They are charging that much because of the bragging rights that goes with climbing that particular mountain...
Which Nigerian politician wants to die and leave behind his loot Not even for their family
Unless he wants to run away from prosecution then he can fake his death by pretending to go to Everest... Will Nigeria go there to check for his corpse?

Explorers:
In an effort to address deaths, human traffic jams on Mount Everest and also weed out inexperienced climbers, Nepali officials on Wednesday formally proposed new safety rules that could significantly reduce the number of permits issued for the world’s highest peak.

Under the measures, climbers would have to prove that they have scaled another major peak, and tourism companies would be required to have at least three years’ experience organizing high-altitude expeditions before they can lead climbers on Everest, Nepal’s tourism ministry said.

To discourage cost-cutting that can put climbers’ lives at risk, the ministry also said that clients of expedition companies would have to prove, before setting out, that they had paid at least $35,000 for the expedition.

A typical total price tag easily surpasses $50,000.

“Everest cannot be climbed just based on one’s wishes anymore,” Yogesh Bhattarai, the tourism minister, said at a news conference.

“We are testing their health conditions and climbing skills before issuing climbing permits.”

Certainly not Nigerian politicians, with their inflated pot-bellies, they won't even make it past the base.
