Nigerians have reacted to the cry of famous Nigerian stand up comedian Charles Okpocha, popularly known as Basket Mouth.
Basket Mouth took to social media to bemoan the huge loss he faced with an estate in Nigeria. The proud father of three announced his issue with an estate 14 years ago, after making a N32 million naira down payment for a house.
Narrating the details regarding the controversy, Basket Mouth sought advice from Nigerians, asking if he should speak up or continue to wait patiently.
Basket Mouth wrote: “I put a N32 million down payment for a house in Prime Water View Estate 14 yrs ago.
They had some issues with the bank funding the project that landed both parties in court. After the matter was resolved I started hearing all sorts of stories concerning the delivery of the house and the refund.
14 yrs later, I’m yet to get my refund, house or even BQ sef. If I call this man/company out now, do you think I waited long enough?”
Celebrities including Omwunmi, Orezi, I go save, Deejay Neptune, Ebiye Victor, Cobhams Asuquo, Richard Nnadi, Fliptyce, among a host of other fans of Basket Mouth, urged him to speak up about the issue.
