Woman blows hot over price of son's iPhone

The story was shared on TikTok by a user, @eyitayo2222, who posted a voice note from his mother, expressing her outrage and disappointment.

The mother raged with anger, berating her son for his dishonesty and causing her to stress herself unnecessarily.

She had taken N20,000 to the shop, only to find that the iPhone cost N500,000, a lot more than her son had claimed.

"Daniel you are a bastardd. You said the phone costs N20,000 and I went to where they are selling it with N20,000 and they said iPhone with 3 cameras is N500,000. I did not buy it," she raged.

It appeared that her son had intentionally reduced the price of the iPhone and feared his mother's reaction if she knew the truth.

He might have thought that by downplaying the cost, he could avoid being accused of being extravagant.

However, his plan backfired, and his mother's discovery of the truth led to a heated confrontation on WhatsApp.

Commenting on the story, a Nigerian phone dealer, Chris Onwuvuariri, confirmed that iPhones are worth about N500k and more.
