Losing My Dad & Dealing With Lazy Relatives: My Experience by Nobody: 11:35am On Aug 24, 2017
I lost my dad on the 14th of August and ever since then my family relations have been trying to frustrate me, my mum and my sister, even to the extent of threatening my life.

How my Dad died.

My Dad had diabetes and fell sick when he travelled to the east, Anambra State. Fortunately he was with my mum when everything started, unfortunately my relations where also present. They debated on the best hospital to take him to, my mum suggested he returned back to Lagos where he had a specialist taking care of him, our family physician also advised the same but due to ignorance, my dads brothers and sisters took him to a maternity hospital, where he died few days later.

The first thing my relations did was to start spreading rumours that my mum, and we the children killed our dad. How? How?
A man we loved so much, although we had our little differences, just like every other family. But we loved him, I've never seen my sister cry so much until the day we lost him.
They took him to a maternity hospital and now turned back to point fingers?
But i'm not interested in accusing anybody.
I just want people to learn from my experience.

My Dad's elder brother has been the only one different in the whole issue.

Sorry for the loss...probably they are eyeing whatever your dad left behind. I advice you not to trust any of them, don't let them know your mind or what you feel about their attitude to you (even the uncle that understands), be prayerful and after the burial get out of there with you mum and siblings if you have the resources.

The first 3months after your Dad dies, your relations will make you wish you joined a confraternity that can just come and fight for you... undecided

Ignore them and keep mute. They are looking for your dad's properties . They want to see who will challenge them. Be wise.

There is something that always baffles me.
What is always wrong with some relatives? Aren't we all also relatives to some others? Why then are some full of so much evil? I've seen a lot of them.

It's so sad the way some African relatives act. They are setting the stage so they can come and claim his properties.
Sorry for your loss. May your dad's soul rest in peace.

Bro, this is the time you have to be very strong. It is a usual occurrence in igbo land to point accusing fingers when a man dies. All they are trying to do is to create problem within the family so that your mum will be accused and your dad's property shared among them. The account i used in writing a similar story when my father Inlaw died was banned by mods.

See be strong and stand your grounds. All they are looking for is your dad's property. I repeat, Stand your grounds.

Typical naija thing plus you igbo, which I heard/read its more extreme in those parts. However since you male, step up to them with as much courage and fierceness you can muster. Never allow them bully or talk trash about your family, the man who died is your father speak and act like his son. Hope you got brothers too?

It will pass though.

Hope say ur papa write will and you get mind because all this English you are blowing will not save you from those wolves(your wicked relatives) when he reach time to share properties. Your daddy is dead and that is a fact that cannot be changed, it is time to wake up and secure his legacy and not time to be emotional and be reasoning one uncle........ angry
