He consequently moved into the uncompleted house like that, an act that left Marline who was rounding off her university programme worried.
Describing the state of the house at that time, she said it was:
''... partly zinced, but no ceiling, so, you can practically see the sky when you’re inside. Things crawl into the house from the open zinc.
''When people are burning farms during the dry season around us, all the smoke and burning flakes flow into our house through the open ceiling. Every flying thing comes into that house. It was basically living outside with a barricade.''
Owing to the uncompleted state of the house, she had on two occasions witnessed thieves crawl into their house at night.
''Twice, someone has crawled into the house at night when I visited and stolen our phones. Even my laptop sef. People crawl and steal off things. We just had luck that we didn’t even have much property worth stealing.''
She carried the family's responsibilities on her young shoulders
Marline said that while being burdened with her desire to get the house completed each year, she took on the responsibility of a breadwinner.
Though not easy, the hardworking lady saw two of her siblings through school. She had also been holding down and meeting her dad's household's needs for years.
''I’m in my 20’s and I’ve seen myself through school (with some help), seen two of my siblings through the university (the second just graduated and I’m not owing a dime), taken care of both my household and my dad’s household monthly for years now and held the family down. Now, I’ve completed my dad’s house and I feel complete.
''All that is left is for our last born to finally get his admission and finish school. My work will be complete,'' she said.
From time to time, she sent her dad cash for building materials and eventually wrapped things up with the completion of the house in 2021.
