Village woman who resided in a shack acquires a fine house in the US
Meanwhile, Briefly News previously reported that a village woman who had lived in a shack made it in life and acquired a house after moving to the US.
Jesse shared on LinkedIn two photos - one in which his mum spread her arms wide open in what he called a small shack and another in which she remade the same pose in a well-constructed house in the US.
In a lengthy read he penned on the social media platform detailing his mum's life story, Jesse said his mum lived in a small shack in the village where they relied on a source of water people use in bathing for drinking and cooking.
