Nigerian rapper and content creator Darlinton Okoye, popularly known as Speed Darlington or Akpi, recently revealed how he took matters into his own hands after being quoted £100,000 for a fencing job.
The outspoken artist shared a video on Instagram explaining that he found the fees for a handyman to be prohibitive and decided to install the wire fencing himself.
In the video, Speed Darlington can be seen working on the fence, noting that if the handyman is capable of the task, he believes he can do it too.
Construction continues on his mansion in a village in eastern Nigeria. The rapper mentioned plans to name the residence “Pride Mansion,” which will have more than 18 rooms.
