A Nigerian man has taken to social media to express his deep disappointment and frustration after receiving a miniature bicycle instead of the full-sized one he had ordered online.
In a video shared on TikTok, the man detailed his shocking experience, revealing that he had placed an order for a bicycle worth ₦7,696. However, he was left stunned when the delivery arrived, and he discovered that the item was a tiny version of the bicycle, much smaller than expected. The delivery was made by a dispatch rider who had previously informed him that his order had arrived.
The man, visibly upset, took to the platform to accuse the online retailer of misleading him, claiming that the product description had been deceptive. In his video, he narrated the events that unfolded upon receiving the delivery: “This is the bicycle I ordered. To my greatest surprise, they called me to say my delivery had arrived. I asked the dispatch rider, ‘Are you driving?’ He said, ‘No, I’m on a bike.’ I wondered how he could carry a bicycle while riding a bike. But to my utmost shock, when he opened the package, this was what they sent me—an April Fool’s joke. My God will judge you!”
The post quickly went viral, and many concerned social media users flocked to the comment section to express their opinions and share their thoughts on the man's predicament. Some users showed sympathy, while others offered advice on how to avoid similar situations in the future. Several individuals pointed out that the buyer might have failed to properly read the item description, which included crucial details like the size of the bicycle.
