“Dear Abuja people. This is a 2 bedroom duplex built with containers in Kado.

“The cold in that house will be much during harmattan and the heat will be much during heat period. During raining season, the sound of rain will be much as well.
The living condition won’t be so good.”

“1 of that container cost 8hk, it’s a good idea, but lead people showing them what’s on the table. Like where they can purchase a container. how to move it from point A to point B, fabricators charge and how long it will last. Can it last 30years? If no, build your small brick house once and get the things u need to make it a heaven.”
