Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that a creative man had built a house with 14,800 sand-filled plastic bottles in Kaduna.
In an interview, the man said his dream of building a house started when he was studying in Germany several years ago. He expressed optimism that Nigeria and many other African countries would adopt this style of building.
He added that he is part of a non-governmental organisation that checks climate/weather challenges around the African continent. He said the house is stronger many times than the ones with normal cement blocks and is also weather-friendly.
