"I posted a video yesterday and said I drive an old car and use an old Samsung phone and got a lot of comments. Some people are laughing at me like I'm the victim (saying) "Back in the days when you were rich". I was rich, now I'm wealthy. I've got land, that's why I'm proud to call myself an African.
"You can't call yourself an African if you don't even own a little piece of Africa, I've got land. I own land for days! I will be building on my land for the rest of my years until I die. Just this year alone, my goal is to at least finish 20 houses. One of them will be going for a minimum of R10 000."
