In September, Apple launched its iPhone 16 series and as it was expected lots of people were anticipating to get their hands on one immediately.
Unfortunately, there is no official apple store in Nigeria, which means if you are looking to get any new iPhone, you have to either order from the abroad or rely on Nigerian vendors which do not come cheap.
For example, the iPhone 16 Pro Max is sold from $1,199 which converts to about N1.95m at official rate. But Nigerian vendors are announcing prices of about N3.5m and even N4.2m for this same iPhone.
Anyways, whether it’s N4m or N2m, there are some rich Nigerian women we think can afford the latest iPhone 16 Pro Max without blinking.
Here are ten of them.
Folorunsho Alakija
This is arguably the richest woman in Nigeria with an estimated net worth of $1bn, so it’s a no-brainer that she can afford the iPhone 16 Pro Max, lots of it if she wants to.
Dr Bisola Tejumola
The head of content of multi-choice, Dr Busola Tejumola has a popular saying – If money can solve it, it’s not a problem. That’s definitely someone who can get an iPhone 16 Pro Max without a second thought if she wants to.
Veekee James
Veekee James charges millions for her wedding dresses. One dress might even cost more than this iPhone, so what are we even saying?
Adaora Umeoji OON
When you count powerful women in Nigeria, Adaora Umeoji, the CEO of Zenith bank will be on the list and an iPhone 16 Pro Max will definitely not be an issue to get.
Shade Okoya
We recently got a view of what businesswoman Shade Okoya’s closet looks like. That’s one woman who wouldn’t blink before dishing out N4m for an iPhone 16 Pro Max.
Linda Ikeji
Media mogul, Linda Ikeji is definitely making this list because, have you seen the cost of her handbags? With two handbags she can get an iPhone 16 Pro Max.
Regina Daniels
This is a no brainer as what’s the better way to spend a billionaire husband’s money?
Dupe Olusola
Dupe Olusola is the Managing Director/CEO of Transcorp Hotels Plc. Do you still need more convincing on why she’s on this list?
DJ Cuppy
Putting daddy’s money aside, Cuppy is every bit hardworking and adding the daddy’s money we put aside, we’re sure an iPhone 16 isn’t an issue.
Bobrisky
Ehn, we’re adding Bob to this list because she identifies as a woman, claims to have just signed a N95m deal and might decide to buy the iPhone 16 Pro Max just for clout. It’s not like she hasn’t done something similar before.
Who else do you think should be on this list?
