Halala! Renowned sportscaster Andile Ncube is building the home of his dreams after initially losing an eye-popping R100,000.
The Metro FM presenter, who previously opened up about the building project, shared a video of himself touring his yet-to-be-completed mansion on YouTube.
In a video that premiered on his YouTube channel on Wednesday, 3 September 2025, Andile Ncube candidly shared that he lost an eye-popping R100,000 after he opted for a cheaper contractor. Ncube said:
“At 100,000 Rands in, I had to make the decision. Do I stay with them and allow them to continue and pour more money in, or do I cut my losses? I sat down with Chris, and what you're seeing now, we have to take it all down. We have to take it all down, and we have to start again with Chris's guys and the quote that he had given me initially, which means 100,000 Rands is down the drain. It's gone.”

He shared that he agreed with his contractor to give the job to PMMV. Andile Ncube, who was one of the co-creators of the Live Amp, shared that he has come to terms with his losses since he is the one who went against his contractor’s advice. Andile Ncube said:
“So, it's been a couple of weeks or maybe even two, three months since then, and things have changed. I've picked myself up. I've admitted to my losses. I've taken it on the chin. I'm the one who was at fault. I said, ‘No, let's go and start it all over again.’”
As part of the update, the plumber, Percy from PMMV and the main contractor also gave an update on the progress of the mansion’s construction.
Andile Ncube shared that after the slab has been laid, building will commence. He shared that he is happy with the progress so far.
“So, yeah, got a slab coming on and we're going to start seeing the upstairs and the kids can start seeing where their rooms are going to be and we can start looking at the sizing. I'm very happy right now. These bricks are going to be going on the double-storey part of the house. So, I'm very happy right now. It's all coming along,” Ncube added.
