Aba traders are known to create an imitation of original products, and they have done it again. This time, they recreated their version of singer Omoniyi Raphael, aka Zlatan's designs from his new ZTTW store.

The singer recently opened a fashion store in Lekki, Lagos, which was attended by numerous celebs. The store spoke of class and opulence and could compete with the country's top designer brands.
Following the store opening, a writer and X user, Dr Penking, called out some Aba traders on their imitations. He stated that the ZTTW store was worth N237 billion and having a fake version would make it difficult for the singer to make his money.
Dr Penking wrote on X:
"Zlatan spent 237 billion naira to open this ZTTW store only for Aba to start counterfeiting his style in less than 24 hours. No pity at all. How will he recoup all that money?"

Netizens doubt the worth of the store
Several X users did not believe that Zlatan's store was worth N237 billion, and they questioned the rationale behind Dr. Penking's price tag. They noted that it was one of the reasons the naira was losing value. See some of the comments below:
