The first man in the mansion of $1 Million is Mr Faith Mba. He is a very successful Igbo business man based in the USA. He is Founder/President, Faith Toyota-Ford Vermont, USA. His story is very inspirational. He did not have rich parents or political connections. He started his first job in the USA as a trainee car sales man. Due to his diligence, hardwork and grace he was promoted and rose through the ranks to be the man he is. Today he owns a massive car dealership and employs over 100 American citizens. Kudos.

As a Jamaican I have learned that you must build back home in case of anything. A lot of people don’t come to America to live. They come to America because it’s the land of opportunity… ALWAYS BUILD YOUR MANSIONS BACK HOME!! It’s a must.

The most best part of this video is this brother built his own house and family house in the same compound I like that.

I'm from Lesotho 🇱🇸 and my husband is an Igbo man, he met me with my two sons and the wisdom he's impacted them with makes them adore him as a father in their lives ❤

I’m from Somalia 🇸🇴 I currently live in South Africa 🇿🇦 I grew up with the Igbo community I learned a lot from them they are naturally go getters full of passion 🇸🇴❤🇳🇬

Rich Africans are unusually not willing to give a tour of their property. This Steven Ndukwu is a special guy.

Before the Biafran War most Igbos living in the Cities had houses in the Cities only and none in the Village. During the Biafran War. Most Igbos had to flee the Cities and go back to the Village. There was not enough houses to accommodate them all, there was quarrelling, fighting in Families and a lot of people were in the Streets and Public Squares. These were people with houses in the Cities, a lot of them lost those houses as well due to the War.
After the War it became a lesson learned for the entire Igbo Community to build a house in the Village regardless of where you settle. That is how it became a culture to this day. It is the same thing with the Mass migration of the Igbos during Christmas and Easter.

[dannyosolo]

Much admiration and respect for Nigeria and Igbos from Kenya 🇰🇪

[okonpikin]

I used to think the most expensive houses are in Lagos and Abuja but now I know better.Igbo kwenu❤❤

[khanyamazkhali]

I am a South African. Im so happy and proud to see such great stories being told about Nigeria. Africa is beautiful!!❤

[paulacurrie]

I’m from Louisiana and we have family land back in slightly rural area. I’m CPA by profession but make my living as FT real estate investor owning 24+ SF rental in TX and invested in numerous apartment complexes. There is NOTHING better than owning at home in your own village/family land!!

I’m a Gambian and I’ve recently been learning about Igbos and I must say I really respect their mindset learning about their past struggles

[steverudy]

i like the elagance. Igbos are like luos in Kenya, we love good life and opulence. i just wished he planted trees in that compound, so much concrete.

[obiayon]

What i like most about this video is that most of these houses are flaunted by the owners without fear of scrutiny, police investigations because their wealth came from hardwork and not stolen from the public!

[MangaOnline-uqfo]

Let these people enjoy their hard work and luxury since it can’t be brought with you. I like Nigeria and as a Jamaican, I’m sending nothing but love and positivity to you all. 🙏🏽

[adamnuhu]

I'm a Fulani from northen part of Nigeria I have alot to say about the IGBOs but the most important thing I got to understand about them they are too hardworking and dedicated with focused and patience

The question is why do Ndigbo build mansions in their villages?

The simple straight forward answer is that the village is the HOME of the Igbo person.

In Igbo world view, his identity and permanent address is his village. He is a mere 'tenant' anywhere else he lives or resides. His village mansion is his final resting place when he dies. The village mansion is his inheritance and the heritage of those that come after him.

The Biafran War has etched in our psyche that we may be booted out of anywhere else we live but home is home. As such, our home must equal or surpass whatever luxury we enjoy in our not so permanent abodes.

I have lived abroad for over two decades and coming home to my village mansion makes me feel like a king 👑as long as the money is there we build for our future and still making more money.
