Man Left Heartbroken After Returning From Abroad Only To Discover Wife Built Mud House With Millions He Sent
A viral video has shown a heartbroken man who returned from Canada only to find out that his wife used the funds he sent to her while in the foreign country to build a mud house.
The man identified as Ongiri expressed his dismay after finding his house incomplete, despite sending substantial funds for its construction.
According to Ongiri, he had sent his wife a significant amount of money to build their dream home while he was abroad.
However, upon his return, he was dumbfounded to find the house incomplete and the money seemingly misused.
Speaking on the Brighton Thee PL YouTube channel, Ongiri revealed that he had sent approximately KSh 150k (equivalent to N1,773,513) for specific purposes, such as purchasing windows, but the intended construction did not materialize.
Expressing his disappointment, Ongiri lamented his trust in his wife, whom he had believed to be reliable.
“I truly thought I could trust her and that she was the one for me. I didn’t know she could do this,” the heartbroken man said.
He confessed that he did not involve his mother in his dealings with his wife and had entrusted her with the funds without suspicion.
Ongiri’s attempts to reach his wife and seek clarification on the whereabouts of the money and the progress of the house went unanswered.
“I tried reaching her yesterday and demanded to know where my house is and the money for investments that I had sent her. I also called her, but my calls went unanswered,” he said.
In a desperate attempt to seek accountability, Ongiri confronted his wife, demanding an explanation for the misappropriation of funds.
In a message displayed during the interview, it was revealed that the couple shares one child.
In an initial video posted by the YouTuber, the wife confessed to deceiving her husband about the progress of the house construction.
“The photos that I sent of an ongoing construction are from my neighbour. But you should forgive me. I am your wife,” the woman said as the man broke into tears.

Obasanjo narrates how he escaped becoming drug addict
Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has revealed how he almost became a drug addict.
He spoke in Abeokuta over the weekend at the second edition of ‘Fly Above The High’ anti-drug campaign conference organised by the Recovery Advocacy Network.
Obasanjo stated that smoking during his youthful age led to chronic coughing and almost became an addiction.
The former President, while lamenting the increase in drug abuse among Nigerians and other West Africans, urged Nigerian students and young people to refrain from abusing psychoactive drugs, saying that they ruin life rather than enhance it.
“If I had persisted, I could have become addicted. Once you get involved, it is difficult to get out.
“There’s nothing drug can do for you except destruction.
“We found out that West Africa has equally been a centre for drug consumption in a very bad way. That was more than 10 years ago, so the situation has since gone worse. And whatever applies to West Africa applies to all other parts of Africa,” Obasanjo said.
He cautioned against stigmatization and urged individuals who are already addicted to psychoactive drugs to get help.

We saved $20bn after Petrol Subsidy Removal and FX Rate Reforms, Says Finance Minister
Wale Edun, minister of finance and coordinating minister of the economy, says Nigeria has saved $20 billion from petrol subsidy removal and market-based pricing of the foreign exchange rate.
Edun spoke at a ceremony recently held to mark the first 100 days in office of Esther Walso-Jack, head of civil service of the federation, in Abuja.
“An amount of five per cent of GDP is what those two subsidies were costing when there was a subsidy on PMS; when there was petroleum product generally for a long time and when there was a subsidy of foreign exchange. Between them, they were costing five percent of GDP,” he said.
“If you say GDP was on average, let’s say $400 billion. We all know what five percent of that is – $20 billion of funds that could be going into infrastructure, health, social services, education.”
