My dad died intestate (without preparing his will). We are working to receive his gratuity from the government. The problem now is that my siblings and his second wife (my mother is the first) are saying they won't involve my dad's family in sharing the gratuity. They are saying this because to them, his death came from them. My dad's family are the people that really did the burial ceremony. Do you think it's right for us to share the money among ourselves without letting my dad's family knowing about it?

I think its wrong ,atleast u said they sponsored the burial.. but u guys know them better sha...

I can't give advice on such issues... be careful though

The money might not even be enough for extended family

If you guys receive the money and after dividing have extra you can give them

Since ur dad did not leave a will behind,d money shld b shared within his immediate family and if properties are involved they shld b sold immediately.

We all know how all this awon ebi pple dey behave.
