Man paying N1,500 rent
A big part of the roof was gone, and light shone into the apartment through different crevices in a video.
The man had a makeshift bathroom some metres away from his house. The man said he earns N10k monthly from his firewood business and would rather not steal.
After @ositapopcorn was done interviewing him, he gifted the man N50k. Many Nigerians wondered who was charging him a ridiculous amount for such a dirty place.
