We
all know that when it comes to living the life of Luxury, Nigerian
Celebrities will never carry last. From living in expensive apartments,
to owning them, to having flashy fleet of cars down to their jewelries
and all, Nigerian celebrities will never be last on the List of “Luxury
Living” if there ever will be a list like that.
In Nigeria, we
are aware of the fact that One’s home is a reflection of one’s success
and achievements in whatever chosen occupation/profession and
“Entertainment” is most definitely not exempted.
Every Nigerian
celebrity has a dream of acquiring his own multi-million naira mansion
and to have this dream come true is usually a long time life goal.
Although,
Nigeria may have the highest number of celebrities in the continent,
not all of them have their own personal homes, that’s why this weekend,
we bring to you the Top 12 celebrities who actually have their own
personal multimillion Naira homes.

both given birth to with silver spoons, and when i say “Silver Spoons”, I

9. DR SID
MAVIN’s recording artist, Dr Sid who just finished his program at the
New York Film Academy is one of the entertainers on our list who can
proudly say he owns a mansion of his own although he revealed that he
didn’t pay out-rightly for his home as it was acquired via mortgage.
Most
celebrities acquire their homes in Mortgage but do not reveal that they
actually got it like that. That isn’t the case of Sidney Onoriode
Esiri. He admitted that he acquired his mansion and pays for the
mortgage monthly.
According to him:
“I put a mortgage
payment plan in place, based on the savings I had made four years before
I started a career in music. I am still paying for the house. And by
the grace of God, I will get a second one soon. I pay close to N1m a
month and sometimes, more. I am going to do this for the next 25 years
and I am not ashamed to say it.” WHAT!
