Building house in Nigeria

The rice seller (@upperwomen) said that she was able to pull off the project without having a shop or permanent business place, aside from her wheelbarrow.

According to the woman, she rented out an apartment, which is a two-bedroom flat. The middle apartment is a self-contained unit that is meant for her workers and children.

She reserved the third apartment for herself because it has a bigger kitchen for her business. The base of the building is tiled to keep the house from retaining water.

Tubular batteries for constant power

In another clip, the woman showed the interior of the house. While two of the apartments had sliding windows, hers had a more expensive one called "casement" windows.

The interior of her flat is all tiled. Beautiful chandeliers hung from her POP ceiling. She said that interior decorations were still working on the house. Everywhere was furnished.

To ensure a 24/7 electricity supply for her freezers and house, the woman installed solar energy in her house with a pair of tubular batteries.
