Nigeria's government has been critisised after it placed an order for gold plated iPhones to mark the country's 53rd Independence anniversary this month.
The specially modified iPhones are said to be worth around £2.65 million and are being converted by a UK jewelry company, Gold and Co.
The company charges between £3,000 and £50,000 per customised handset depending on the type of gold used and if any jewels are required in the casing.
The 53 special phones are to be supplied by Amjad Ali, a Bristol-born owner of Gold and Co. now based in Dubai.
