Lagos, Nigeria – Nigerian skit-maker and fast-rising streamer Shank Comics has set social media on fire after splashing over $100,000 (about ₦150 million) on a Mercedes-AMG GLE 63 S Coupe.

The star creator, whose real name is Adesokan Adedeji Emmanuel, unveiled his new luxury ride in a viral video shared on Instagram, showing off the sleek machine as friends hyped him in celebration. The news of Shank’s new whip quickly got people talking online. While many congratulated him for his consistency and success, others jokingly said it might be time to join the streaming business.

@barrylee teased: “She thinks say na 12 million lol. Congrat Shank omo Lambe ❤️.”
@mc_darkorcomedian added: “You see all of them wey dey there so, nor be all of them truly happy for am 😂.”

Shank Comics has come a long way from creating short skits in his living room. Now one of Nigeria’s biggest digital entertainers, this is not his first major purchase — in 2022, he trended after buying his first car. With his latest luxury acquisition, Shank continues to show just how profitable the entertainment and streaming space can be for top creators.

Celebrities Are on a Spending Spree

Shank’s splash comes just weeks after music superstar Davido reportedly dropped $1 million on a Lamborghini Revuelto ahead of his Miami wedding in August. It seems Nigerian celebrities are turning 2025 into a year of big-money moves.
