A Twitter user identified as Adam Pugh had taken to Twitter to lament about the high cost of living in London. Sharing a photo of the room in a house-share, he revealed the rent was the same as a 2 bedroom house outside London.
Sharing the photos he wrote,
“I’ve just seen a room in a houseshare with a kitchen in a wardrobe for the same price as a 2 bedroom house outside of London. London is a scam.”
In response to his tweet, Nigerians flocked to the comment section to joke about how Lagos landlords will not mind imitating the style in order to make more money for themselves.
A Twitter user @zinnysugar wrote, “Lagos landlords will copy this thing now😩”.

@plegendmedia, “😂😂😂 how’s this even possible? House no go burn like this?”
@omonigho655, “Do proper investigation, the owner of that property na Lagosian😂😂😂”.
