you think any one will buy this house? Dey play
Why would you be thinking about people buying the house? That is a family house.

This is the fate of majority of the mansions people build in the villages. Cant be sold, too expensive to maintain when the owners dies, the children are abroad or lagos/abuja/ph based and dont have strong connections to the village. But hey am still a poor man so i may not understand 😀
Leave that poor man thing, you understand perfectly!!! This is why we MUST pay heavy taxes so that the money will build our roads, schools, hospitals, government buildings, airports, seaports etc
Otherwise the landscape will be littered with absolute brainless edifices like this. We prefer to FLEX and display unnecessary “I Big pass you” things. We need to use our IQ better.

This man was the king of highlife music. I thought after dedicating a whole song hyping the Billionaire Igwe John Nebeolisa in "Nwanne di na mba", that came out as one of his best hit, the Billionaire could have settled him handsomely
Where do you think he got some of his money? Is it until the man buys him aeroplane?

I don't understand why people build super structures like this in the village when a simple 3 or 4 bedroom flat would have been enough, and easily be let out thereafter. Look at how this mansion has turned to a relic and eyesore, wasting away. Who is going to live inside? This structure is going to be desolate forever because it is too massive to be renovated and occupied by a single individual. Infact, it can comfortably house all the entire population of Ezinifite grin.
*modified*
Exactly. Same question I asked a friend who recently invested in building a mansion in the east. A man well established in the US, all his kids born there, schooled and have started working. Yes he says some day he will retire to naija, but will that happen? Will he sell his business (legecy) in the US to return to naija? Ok even if he does come, when he passes on what happens to that mansion? Buildings so personalized they cannot be sold.
Omo, last last all those mansions in the east na villagers go claim am.

That is the problem with most houses in Igbo land. Same thing happen in Ijebu too because after the demise of the owner, family left can't be able to take care of the structure.
It is a problem all over Nigeria and Africa at large stop singling out Ijebus and Igbos.

Igbos will build mansions in their villages with no economic value

Even when he return back to Naija, he will not go to his village in the east but rather Lagos and will.be travelling to his village once in a year

King of high life...
How come his children abandon the village house?
At least one of his children is doing fine in music.

It's a shame to see houses of prominent persons go in ruins in Igbo land..
Ezego, joneb, even nzeribe.
Their children no dey try at all.
My dear wealth doesn't go like that. Their children have their lives to live and mustn't carry on with their father's legacy.
None can replace the you. You are you....the original. You cannot be replaced, even with your own blood children.
What happened to the children of the super rich and high politicians, they can't match their fathers'.
They'll only need the ladder to climb and then carve THEIR OWN NICHE`

There are 80% beautiful houses in villages around the south east than the cities.. fact check me
Anything that is useless is not beautiful. Igboland is a case study for wasteful ‘I get money pass you’ senseless edifices. We need Tinubu taxation to redirect these money to public infrastructure and amenities for the people. Just that our IQ is very low for now.

They should demolish this concrete cemetery and use the rubbles to do filling of potholes in the community road.
Absolutely good idea 👍

Not surprise that's the Igbo ways
It’s a Nigerian way not just Igbos.

It’s a low IQ way.

I learnt he was trying to finish up this house, which led to him depositing the mum's corpse in the morgue against her wish and finally he died a week after

A 4 bedroom flat would have sufficed...
What would you do with 4 bedroom flat if you don't have plan of taking in many people?

A simple 2 or 3 bedroom pen house is more than enough for a nuclear family. When all your children leaves, that is when you know the important of small space as elderly person.

The problem most of them have is that they've never interacted at close quarters with extremely wealthy individuals, they cannot imagine the lifestyle we're trying to describe

Go and check emeka bbnaija father's house in okija, who is even a life. You'll imagine if truly it's emeka father's house. I couldn't sleep in the driver's room i was asked to sleep when we went there for a wedding in 2022. The compound was so dirty

This is the destiny of many of our home mansions. doesn't look like anyone is living there. Prehaps convert it to a museum or music school.

Who calls the ugly looking contraption a mansion! The architect, if ever there was one, should be flogged for delivering such an inelegant design!
