Big boys in Abuja and Lagos have been in a luxury automobile battle since the beginning of the week. The Lagos-based celebrity car influencer Ola’s auto cruise between Lagos and Abuja served as the catalyst for the beginning of the vehicle war.

Days after the trip, turned to Ola’s Instagram account to remind him that Lagos lost, writing: “Abuja 10-0 Lagos.” He contends that Abuja has more high-end vehicles than Lagos’s powerful people. In these two megacities, that marked the start of a massive vehicle chase between the big boys.
On Instagram, auto aficionados have responded to this trend, with some of them concluding that it is accurate. Others, however, disagree, claiming that there weren’t many high-end vehicles on the cruise since the big boys in Lagos were too busy during the week to go on auto cruises.
Here’s what @supercarsofnigeria has to say about the ongoing luxury car battle:
“I don’t know the genesis of this ‘Abuja vs Lagos’ car wahala, but these Abuja boys should know say the way motor full Abuja na so e full Lagos. The car in this video is a 1 or 1 2022 Brabus 550, na Lagos e dey, the legendary V12 Ferrari F12 Berlineta, probably the only one in the Country, na Lagos e dey….numerous Lamborghinis including the Aventador SVJ, the ultra-luxury Maybach 62s Landaulet, only 8 was made worldwide, Birdman owns one, DJkhaled owns one, 2 in Dubai to carry high profile people from Airports to Hotels, I see one with my korokoro eyes, one is in South Korea also as chauffeur, AND there is one in Lagos, not even on the island, it’s in Ikeja GRA, and it might probably be the only one in Africa, na still Lagos e dey, Lexus LFA sef dey, Tesla yapa, Bentley yapa, Rolls-Royce na pure water, including the latest models, 2023 Ghost, 2023 Cullinan Black Badge etc, Ferrari yapa etc. I no sure say any car dey Abuja wey no dey Lagos except a Bugatti Veyron, but then, a Bugatti Chiron is on it’s way to Lagos just for display in a show room, so Abuja noise makers do more of performance, dey drive motor up and down dey get accident and dey over speed anyhow, na why BMW full there. The fact say na some of our young boys come out on Saturday in Lagos and na Lexus IS and GLK full there no mean say na the definition of the Lagos Car Culture be that, we the Lagosians are low key.”s

I want to say emphatically, that Lagos has more luxury cars than Abuja. You can’t even compare. So don’t even stress yourself trying to prove any point. Its not evn an argument. At least not yet.”
