Build your mom house first to make her happy, her happiness only will serve as prayer for you to provide means to build your own.
Also prepare your mind that it is family house not yours so that it will not be a means of quarrels among your siblings in future. Involve your brothers if they can contribute or not whichever way, good

Hello all...
I know you have made up your mind to build your mother's house first. You are not here for advise but only want to hear from people advising you to go ahead. Let me break it down:

1. You put the wrong foot forward when you talked about building the home because you want to take "shame" away from your mom. Is that really a reason to build a house for your mom? You should because you want to and not because of shame.

2. If you're completing your mom's house, you should know the house belongs to your mom, and all your siblings have the same right to it as you do. Many siblings have ended in conflict after someone wanted to claim more rights because they built, completed, or renovated a property that belonged to their parents or family.

3. And as you say, the land is also a family land as you say, are you sure family members will not contest its ownership with your siblings after your mom is gone?

4. Then there is your fiancee too. She did the right thing by advising you to build yours first. Many people have completed homes for their parents thinking they'd build theirs next, only for some unforeseen event to stop them from building theirs. They then turn to their parent's house, in many cases, running it as if it was theirs, thereby putting them in conflict with their siblings.

5. I would advise you to build your first and then go on with your mom's. But as I said, you're not here for advise but to validate what you already have in mind.

Please build your mum's house first while putting small money aside periodically to start yours later. Which kind question you dey ask? If your financee doesn't like it, well, take your que from that. If you build yours first and move your mum in, it is this same fiancee that would start complaining.

Hello all,

This is difficult situation for me, my mom's house has been left uncompleted since 2014 just the foundation and probably 2couch were placed ontop since then it's been there because she had to send my siblings and I to higher institution. Now am of age, doing quite well for myself. I think am finally ready to build a house, was thinking about getting a land 100 by 50 and raise 5 bedroom flats... but on the other hand that my mom's building had been left uncompleted since it's a family land, relatives are starting to say somethings and sometimes I could see the shame on my mom's face when she goes to her family compound. Almost every months they always call her to come clear it that it has become harbor for snakes and pests. So I thought why don't I just complete it for her first.


The issue here Is immediately I told my fiancee she said it's a good idea but kicked against it. That I should build mine first, before completing my mom's. That it can wait.

I also confided in a friend of mine, he said almost same thing, that my thing is different from our own. Saying am not the only one my mom gave birth to, if I complete it now I should be ready to share it with my siblings no matter what when the time comes.

I'm confused and need advice on the step to take. I would really want to complete that house for my mom I Know it would mean a lot to her..I'm really confused.

One way or the other somebody has to develop it, if I the first son don't do it now that am financially stable. Then my younger bro will do it, trust me it won't make sense that way that's just my fear.

Lolz, I am intrigued with what your answer will be.

1. Considering building his mother's house. He should build it.
2. Considering building his mother's house instead of his. He should build his house.

Don't you think it's better for me to confide in an olosho I sleep with, than to come online to ask random people who some are demented lunatics like you who find every loopholes to ridicule people online.
Kriss the whole nairaland knows you and your silly post, your Just a small boy who still feeds on mama thank you.

The funny thing is your mates are out there doing better things for themselves, winning daily.
I don't know why people waste their time advising demented fools. I grown ass man right thinking head don't need to bring issues like this online.


Meanwhile, I can swear with my life that you're sharing that girl with other men .... That's a bitter truth.
A man like you may not be able to attract or manage a loyal girl and a girl in her right mind won't give you such advice, a senseless advice your mom or siblings won't be happy with if they get to know...

YOU ARE SHARING THAT GIRL WITH OTHER MEN!
If you're in doubt, find a way of hacking her phone for like 3 months without her knowledge and you'll find all the answers.

If you trust that girl so much, let me know. I will drop an email address for you to send me her phone number. Within 2 weeks, she will dump you, just 2 weeks.
That girl you call your fiancee will leave you if she gets a better offer, I guarantee you. That is the person that is advising you not to build for your mother. Don't you see that you are an eternal fool?
Build that house for your mother. Let her bless you. She's elderly and can go at any time.
Why do you guys always find a way to degrade women like this? You don't even know how far they've gone in the relationship for him to seek her opinion.

Op build yours and then continue with her's abeg. Many have been doing it and their family is still peaceful. You want to keep paying for house rent? Your mum can always come to where you live till you complete the family house.

Remember situations sabi change, the money might stop coming, you can use your savings you would've paid the landlord to build hers.

The best is to build your own first before completing your mother’s own. If you go into that your mom’s building now, you might be in for juju attack from those people calling your mom to come clear bush. The building remains ur mom’s property even if you add skyscraper on top of that foundation. You can only inherit the building from ur mom only if you are the last male child of ur family…. That’s according the culture of my people

You can build a million houses but you can only have 1 mother and 1 father.
Divorce is very cheap. Lesser than the cost of getting used keke marwa. No matter what that stupid jezebel has done for that fool, she is never in a position to tell him that nonsense not to build his mother's house.

Complete your mother's house. Her saxrufuxe is the reason why the house is uncompleted. Better still, double your hustle and take both projects at the same time so it doesn't cause a rift in your love life. However, if you can take up just one, your mother's should come first.

Chief if I must be honest I'll advice you complete your mum's, your the first son remember? She had to abandon that property for you and your siblings.

If your younger brother completes that house will you have the guts to visit your mum with your family? Aside what people will say will your conscience permit you to be at peace with yourself?

Go to your mum. Buy the property from her BUT don't tell anyone. None of you should. Build it and let her live in it. Everyone will congratulate her and congratulate you for building for her. She will be immensely happy and both of you will be fulfilled. Anytime God calls her home, the house is yours and no one will be able to dispute it with you.
