Nigerian medical doctor shares photo of his car after 10 years of practice and a side hustle

A Nigerian medical doctor, Babatunde, has shared a photo of the car he could only afford after ten years of working and a side hustle in the country.

The doctor, who seems to have relocated to the UK, recalled when some young boys in a Lexus laughed at him after the car broke down somewhere in Abeokuta.

“10 years as a Medical Doctor in Nigeria. This is what I could afford. On this particular day some young boys in a Lexus were laughing at me with my tie under the hot sun of Abeokuta,” he wrote on Tuesday, February 17, 2026. 

“There was no way on earth my salary and side hustle could get me another car.  We really need to fix Nigeria for Nigerians not just for a few.”
