One of the popular housemates on the Big Brother Naija Shine Ya Eye reality show, known as WhiteMoney, has disclosed why most Igbo people do not spend money where they work for it.
According to the reality star, who made reference to nightclub boss, Obinna Iyiegbu aka Obi Cubana, most people from the South East would rather show off their wealth in their villages.
WhiteMoney, speaking with the other housemates said, “I’m speaking for the Igbo clan; majority of the Igbo do not spend money where they hustle for money.
“I’m hustling in Lagos, I won’t be balling in Lagos. If you want to know my worth, follow me to my village.
“An Igbo man can be living in a flat here and pay rent to landlord but he has a mansion worth billions in his hometown.”
Whitemoney listed Igbo men who have mansions in their hometown to include Obi Cubana and the Chairman of Five Star Group, Emeka Okonkwo aka E-Money.
He described E-money’s house as “Heaven that fell down and stayed in one part of Earth”.
He added, “Cross (another housemate) is from Oba. If you go to Obi Cubana’s house, it’s the same thing. They are plenty”
