A Nigerian man living abroad has captured hearts online after revealing how he stunned his father with the ultimate surprise—a newly built house—after years of being presumed dead.
Sharing his emotional story on X (formerly Twitter), the man disclosed that his father believed he had died in a foreign prison due to years of silence and lost communication. However, unbeknownst to his father, he had not only survived but had been quietly working on building a dream home for him back in Nigeria.
In his heartfelt post, he wrote: “After years of suffering in an abroad prison, my dad thought I was dead, but I wasn’t. I was secretly building a house for him in Nigeria. I had to reveal my surprise earlier to give him more life.”
