Nigerian singer Shallipopi, whose real name is Crown Uzama, recently voiced his astonishment at the cost of transportation in Sweden, specifically highlighting a jaw-dropping payment of €1,500 for a mere 5-minute Uber ride.
In a post on his Snapchat page, Shallipopi underscored the stark contrast between transportation expenses in Nigeria and those abroad. He shared his disbelief by stating, "Pay €1,500 for a 5-minute Uber, which is over 1.5 million in naira. We are truly enjoying in Nigeria."
Furthermore, Shallipopi pointed out that the equivalent of €1,500 in Nigeria would amount to approximately ₦1.5 million.
