People who build mansions in the village are made men. They are not looking at the economic implications. Imagine say they go obi cubana house or blord and he no get signature house, nah rubbish.

Lol, so this doctor is poor?. dey play

Do you know him before? At least you know the people I mentioned. So someone like like adenugu should not have a signature house in ogun state??

In other words, don't bring major investments in the village. You're forgetting the crucial part of "little or no economic value" he emphasizes.

It applies to all villages, nobody builds a mansion in a village in Kwara or Osun State. It is a waste of resources. We Igbos like to build massive infrastructures in the village hence the message. I know you see this as an opportunity for tribal banters but, the message is pretty clear.
If you live full time in the village, then you can have your mansion.

Nnamdipapa:
Nope, you are getting the wrong message. You can build a simple basic house in the village, not an imposing edifice. You see the difference?

If I can afford it why not, omo people dey this life oo.

Aside for self braggadocio and status symbol, what economic value do those empty big-for-nothing mansions in the remote villages surrounded by bushes ?. They are abandoned, unhabitable, mostly used as kidnapper's den and oftentimes used as a drug factory.

What exactly are the use of those big duplex in Abuja and Lagos that the owners are abroad

Use your head, he's advising you to invest in SW & SS where there's economic value and returns than waste money building liabilities in the SE. A word is enough for the wise but we know that people like you without shingbai are mostly the online billionaires.

Only a dull people would think those people who build houses in the village build it for economic gains

Lmaooo

Yes, you're right, they build it for economic loss.

Do you know him before to assume he's poor?. Will everyone flaunt theirs wealth on social media?

Leave those morons. They think people build houses in the village so that they can sell it tomorrow for profit. The idiots masturbating on lgbos building houses in their village will never question aboki who build houses in the north while living in tent In lagos. Once it's lgbo they start grunting like pigs

I building a mantion in the village is the same reason people buy rolls Royce or go clubing

It's just personal glorifications nothing more

It's same reason you spend on wedding ceremony

Leave us alone oga

Of course you can do whatever you want but people are free to discuss on a public forum.

The money used in building that mansion in the village is it your advice that helped the person to get that money?


One thing I like about we igbos is we are individualistic, everyone does what he wants

Youve spoken out of envy as expected from a Yoruba.

Leave people's culture alone.

The useless Dr. Who has a Yorubas wife did the same thing, why wasn't he smart enough that it's a bad idea before he built his.

It's only foolish Igbos that invest outside Igboland.

Igbos are wiser now....

Investments has nothing to do with tribe. You only invest where you are guaranteed the most return on your Investments and there are adequate security of lives and properties.

Would you invest in a place where someone can tell your staff to sit at home on Mondays, or any days of the week?
I am sure you never ran away company before.

Your comparison is illogical, doesn't make sense

Dr arinze is a foolish man. How can you not have a house in your village. Are you from sw or North. All the Northerners who are capable of building all have mansion in their village or state of origin. All the Yorubas working in oil companies in ph don't have houses there, rather they built mansion in the sw. Yet one stupid lgbo man is questioning why lgbos are building in the east. Foolish man

this is d problem with people like u

U read to reply n not to understand

He said build a smal manageable house in d village,don't build a gigantic structure that will not add any value but always take maintenance money from u

zero8zero:
You can't compare SW or even Kano to the southeast. You couldn't even go home last December.

south east is better than south west in everything....

So if you build in lagos, you will not maintain the house abi. Try and plug your mouth to your sense before talking

Maybe if you actually stayed in class while in school, you would have noticed that he never said you should not build a house in the village but build a moderate one that would not require a huge cost to maitain while it depreciates in value

What nonsense are you typing. Are you the one to tell me what kind of house I should build. Are there not tens of thousands of houses lying empty in lekki. Are there not fully built estates lying empty in Abuja. You are too blind to see that one. Your eyes opens only when lgbo house is empty. Prof of lgbo affairs

Ouch!! Lol...I did not know it would hurt you so much. The guy was just advising against irrationality and bragging spirits that add no value to life or property,given his own experience.

You may choose to ignore his advice and act according to your whims,albeit stupidly and irrationally.

I built houses in Nigeria including a mansion nobody lives in, I am currently liquidating them for better investments abroad. I can relate to what the guy is saying.

Why jumping to Adenuga, an outlier? Do we have 1000 people rich like Adenuga in the entire Nigeria.

The doctor is right, most of the houses in the village are only used once in a year during travels to the village and left to decay. Sure, If you have crazy money like Adenuga, you can afford to waste in an house you do not live in.

If you live in the village 100%, it makes sense to have a mansion otherwise, it is a wasted resources.

There are people abroad who live in small houses yet build mansions in the village, I suspect these are the segment of individuals the good doctor is referring to.
It's all about value for money and wise investment decisions.

He's right

There are tens of thousands of newly built houses in lekki and Abuja that have been empty for last 8 years. So close your eye to lgbo house and give your advice to empty lekki houses
