Nigerians and South Africans are in a new online battle for dominance.
On Thursday morning, people from both countries started ordering e-hailing rides from Bolt and Uber in the other country, only to cancel the rides when the drivers arrived.
The situation began with South Africans reportedly ordering rides in Nigeria and canceling them. In response, Nigerians did the same in South Africa.
As of Thursday, social media in Nigeria is buzzing with trends related to ‘South Africa’ and ‘Bolt’ on X.com. See reactions indicating this:
