congo4ka:
Madam u sure sey u no be winsh

chisom675:

Even if she's a witch as u said, wat abt his siblings including his brothers wife he beat n injured,I guess all of em are witches too...no matter what "FAMILY FIRST"

nothernstar:
are you saying what you know or just blabbing. Your comment shows that you don't know the law or custom of those ppl. I encourage you to keep quiet when you are not sure else you keep yourself for attack and ridicule.

safarigirl:
Me I just want to know what the other kids are doing with their lives and why they were all living in their father's house and starting families there?

Did the guy tie their destinies that they couldn't at least have some decent living by themselves?

Xisnin:

They can live anywhere they chose, it is their father's house and they have a right to it.

Xisnin:
This is what you get with a culture that unfairly wills all a father's properties
to the first son as if he has two heads.
To make matters worst women in the family, including the mother are
treated like nobody and they have no say or inheritance from their
late father's property.They are usually at the mercy of the first son.

safarigirl:
well, now they've been kicked out, so much for their 'right'....maybe if they had bothered to build theirs, one bully brother wouldn't have kicked them out.

There is nothing like something that belongs to you, your father's property can never be your property nor your sweat

DerideGull:


Good you remembered the first son part. Are you also going to criticize the same culture when the first son is called upon to perform certain rites for the dead father because he is the first son? There is nothing wrong with the culture however everything is wrong with people who tend to become counterculture by playing idiotic politics of the day. I can assure you there is more to political affiliation to this matter than the culture.

Xisnin:


Even if they had built theirs, the usurper commissioner has no right to
take sole control of the properties. I just hope they can afford a good lawyer.

Nigeria's inheritance law needs to be strengthened to correct the injustice
of scheming out a widow from inheriting her late husband's property in some section
of the country.

Xisnin:


Power corrupts people. When you give total control to a person because
he is the first born, he will likely abuse such power.
If you have lived in the east, you will know that this case is not isolated
and has nothing to do with politics because some siblings, uncles and mothers
who are not politicians also engage in inheritance war whenever the first
son try to assert his "sole right" to his father's properties.

The injustice must stop.

Xisnin:

They can live anywhere they chose, it is their father's house and they have a right to it.

safarigirl:
and you think the commissioner cannot pay off a judge in Imo?

Anyway, if they can't afford a house of their own, I doubt they can afford a good lawyer

Abagworo:


They should make money and build their own houses. I hate lazy people

baby124:

It’s their father’s house. A family compound. Your farher’s house is a last place of refuge if things go bad for you. The elder brother is wicked because he can afford to refurbish the house and buy his own personal house elsewhere. There is nothing like lazy brother’s here. They are all of the same father and entitled to enter their father’s house. Why is such a rich man fighting for his own father’s house? What makes him better than his younger ones? Rubbish.

I will definitely kill a child that does this to his younger ones. If na me born am. If I and their father did not disown them, then he has no right to throw their mother out of her own house and her husbands house. Then throw her kids out of her own house. It’s like he wants to die in that house and he sure will.

DerideGull:


They say unease rests the head that wears the crown. You alleged the first refurbish the house and still afford a house somewhere. Why do other brothers not refurnish the house or able to afford a house somewhere? Now if they cannot afford a house, then levelheadedness and mild tone of tongue can save situations like one unfolded.

jrusky:
This is another madness and another shame. Pls good minded free thinking NL does that name okolie sound Yoruba or fulani? I guess hell No. This is the reason I kept telling my kinsman dying of tribal jabs to desist all tribes in Nigeria are suspect when it comes to strange news. Now my people has ran away because it's okolie the name in question. Pls shun hate and tribal madness this is typical example to tell those tribalist folks especially my own people to read this and get lives.

Now to the topic Nne are you sure that your son is not a bastard? Because only bastard does what he has done or doing. Or he is under a spell from village people or he belong to a cult because some cults behave that way. In one word Mr commissioner shame on you definitely you are a disgrace to humanity. It does not matter what reasons are you have incurred generational curse upon yourself. You don't deserve to be a commissioner in the first place because if you can do this to your own mother who the f u c k are ordinary citizen to you then?
