Twitter users argue about price of mansion
Netizens love to see others' building process, and most peeps disagreed about the mansion's price. Online users argued that women spent a lot more for such a big house, and her followers said she spent over R3.5 million and that R1.5 was the initial budget.
BusinessTech reports that its costs R980 000 to build a house that is 90 square meters in the Eastern Cape, and Mama Dee's house is a whooping 1 303 square meters for building and living space.
Read what some people had to say:
@Bayanda_MD added:
"You made me follow this lady on YouTube.Also the R1.5m was an initial budget not the total cost, she has now spent well over that."
@mestagray commented:
"Only 1.5M? Thought it’d be more."
@tee_I_be exclaimed:
"Impossible."
@HarbingerZA argued
"The amount is clearly wrong and misleading. It's way past that at this stage. If I'm not mistaken, this is the lady who showed her DNA results on YouTube & found to have quite a lot of indigenous DNA. She has a page detailing costs and this is not it."
@Lugisani_LG asked:
"Why are you misleading the nation with that R1.5m "
