Nollywood actor, Sam Nnabuike advises his fellow Igbos who build mansions that worth millions in their villages.
In a series of posts shared on his Insta stories, Sam Nnabuike stated that the culture is common among the Igbo people of Nigeria stated that it is not a smart thing to do.
In his words;
“In my understanding, AKU RUO UNO is selflessly giving a helping hand to your kinsmen, helping the needy and weak in your paternal/maternal communities, providing succor for the widows, and ultimately helping to put your hometown on the map positively.
“I am not saying don’t build houses in your hometown or villages. No, that’s far from it. Build a moderate home of 4 to 6 bedroom bungalow or duplex where you and your family can always run into when you visit your hometown.
“If you aren’t looking to run for politics in the nearest future as a wealthy man. You have no business building a multi-million naira mansion in your hometown. Period.”
