Man who just returned to Nigeria after a decade in Australia to discover his brother didn't build the house he was sending him money for

A Nigerian man has taken to social media to share the story of a friend who was deceived by his elder brother. The man identified as Olaudah Equiano had revealed that his friend recently came back from Australia. According to him, his friend had lived in Australia for ten years and he had been sending money home to his brother who claimed to have been building a house for him in the village. The man narrated that his friend was shocked after he returned to discover that there was no house being built in the village.

Equaino who shared the story on Twitter, noted that his friend's elder brother had even sent him fake photos of another person's house just to cover home his lies.

In his tweet, he revealed that the elder brother had admitted to deceiving his brother after he was questioned. He said the man had claimed to have used the money for a state contract job According to him, the elder brother noted that he would return the money once the government pays him back for his investment.

He said: "The elder brother admitted channeling the money to a contract for the state government, saying that he'll refund when he's paid. Why give false pictures to your brother if that's the case? Who knows if this assertion is actually true & if & when he'll ever be paid."

Funny thing is that u ‘ll see people that will support the elder brother. This life eh! Best thing is to build your house in stages. When you come for vacation. Do foundation, go. Another visit do to window sitting or lintel, go, next you deck, go. Then to roofing, go. It’s works
