Kenyans have heaped praised on a kind woman who built her mother a simple house.
Sharon Beverly said she fulfilled a promise she made to her mother of building her a house and though it was simple, she was still proud of the results.
Taking to Facebook, the young lady disclosed she had spent around R17 500 on constructing the house and she was hoping that she could plaster it soon.
Beverly also said she would build her mother a permanent home when she was financially able to do so.
"I promised to build her a home. I thank God it has come to pass even if it's simple. It cost me 130k, not yet plastering which I am planning to do soon," she said.
Kenyans were more than proud of her for building her mum such a beautiful house. Here are some of the reactions:

"I have been wanting to do this for a very long time. May God bless me with a job because my first mission is to make them proud by building them a house so help me God. Congratulations Sharon may God bless you abundantly."
