A Nigerian man with the Twitter handle @mr_geffi1 has caused so much social media buzz after he posted an advert for an aeroplane.
Putting the price at $6 million (N2,286,000,000), the man said that the location of the aircraft is Abuja. He attached three photos of the airbus so prospective buyers can see what they are paying for.

Its interior shows that the aircraft is a private jet and not a passenger plane. A side of the aisle has a three-seater couch.
Nigerians would just not have any of it as they asked where he actually wants them to see money to buy such.
There were others who said they have not even made enough money to buy a second-hand car, as they wondered who his target audience is on the Twitter platform.
