Similarly, Legit.ng reported that a young Nigerian lady, Anagu Nkemjika, with the TikTok handle @kem__ji has gone online to show people the house an agent told her to come and pay N1.1 million rent for in Lagos state.

The apartment is barely big enough for a person. The kitchen is so small that not all body types can comfortably stay in it. According to Nkemjika, she suspected the house would not cut it but decided to go take a look since she was around the area.

That was not all. The N1.1m is just basic rent and does not include other charges that could total payment to over N2m. When Nkemjika said that only students could stay there, many wondered where someone in school would get such money from.
