“You’re Better Than Us”: Smart Lady Builds Small House, Tiles Floor, Moves in Without Ceilings

  • A very thoughtful lady has used the little money she has to build a small house on her land so she can stop paying rent
  • Sharing a video of the house, the lady said though the house was not as big as a normal apartment, she was happy with it
  • Many TikTokers thronged her comment section to praise her for taking a bold step to have a permanent roof over her head

A young lady, @kakokaondjafa, has shared a video of the small house she built for herself. She said she could not believe she was now a landlady.

The lady's house is as small as one built as a security outpost attached to a big building. The flooring of the building is tiled.

At the corner of the one-room building is a well-laid bed. It has a very small window in front. The only entry to the house has a wooden door. In another clip, she was seen painting an interior of a building. She said the painting was for a business purpose and not the same house. In her words:

"...that's for my business."

Captioning the video of her building, she said:

"I can't believe I just built my house. I know it is not big but at least I now have a roof to call my own."

In another video she shared, the lady claimed that she used 310 blocks for the building. When she was reached for exclusive comments on how she intends to live in the house with her family, she said:

Nigerian men build houses

Meanwhile, Legit.ng earlier reported that a young Nigerian man (@2black_01) who works as a bricklayer showed people how he built a very modest house for himself and completed it on time.

In a video that has stirred massive reactions on TikTok, it was seen that the man put in so much effort. Many were amazed when they saw how much work he invested into the project.

In similar news, a young Nigerian man, @dozzy039, got many people praising him after he shared a video of the new house he built.

He captioned it, "Just for you mama nobody else worth am" to show it was for his mother. The clip showed that the construction was already done and painted.
