:Nigerian social media activist Verydarkman has warned Nigerian phone dealers against inflating the price of the newly released iPhone 18, saying he would help consumers purchase the device directly from China if local prices become excessively high.
Speaking in a video from China, VeryDarkman said he had visited an Apple Store and confirmed the release of the iPhone 18.
He alleged that Nigerian business owners would increase the price of the new device, which he argued could also cause the price of the previous iPhone 17 to rise.
He said he had already placed an order for the new iPhone and expected it to arrive on September 18.
Verydarkman also addressed phone dealers who might accuse him of trying to disrupt their businesses, insisting that he would deliberately intervene if they excessively increased their prices.
He said:
“I just reach Apple Store for China. iPhone 18 just come out, and I know una for Nigeria una go inflate the price. And you know the problem with you inflating the price is that the 17 now go come dey more expensive. I know where una wan carry this thing go.
“Now like this, I dey China. I don order now. It’s going to come on the 18th. Una know me. Business people, una go talk say I wan spoil business for una. Una go hate me. But I go spoil am.
“If I hear the price go up, I go help people dey buy dey bring am come Nigeria.”
