He spent millions of dollars using Gerard stone-coated roofing materials for the house. The man congratulated himself.

Many Nigerians praised him for making a smart decision to have a roof over his head. Some doubted he built it. However, another clip on his page showed the same house at its foundation level.

Speaking to a construction expert, Gbenga Muritala, on what the likely cost of finishing the young man's house could be, he said:

"People sometimes overlook finishing cost. To plaster the walls and floor that house would still run into millions. That's masonry work alone. Electrification, plumbing and tiling are on another level that would also gulp money."
