"Subsequently, I had to start sending to my younger bro who I knew was to be trusted with funds and truly, he didn't disappoint... Got 3 plots of land and started off something on one but my dear wife told me she won't move into the house when completed as it was an insult to her as a wife for my bro.
"To be the one incharge of "her husband's money" when she's still alive. Bro, if after that house is completed and my wife doesn't move in. lam taking another wife ASAP. I deprive myself luxury here just to get them a place to call theirs but see her actions."

"But I can't still judge or support you, till her side of the story is heard."
