Write a will? In Nihggeria if you siggest that they will say you are enemy of progress and wants to kill the person. Rich people dont die in Niggeria

Did the family help in building your business or do they have stake in it? Put your wife and kids first in all consideration! Your siblings and relatives have their own kids too.

how can you discard your blood? Wife will abandoned you but your family will remain.

So if you get amputated, is it your brother that woiod be taking care of you till you heal? If you get cardiac arrest in the middle of the night, is it your siblings that would be by your side that moment? Think!

TB Joshua's wife is trying to retrive her husband's properties from the family and church.

I believe once a man is dead, his properties are automatically his wife. But men should learn to write their will anything can happen.

Write your will and will everything to your wife. She is the only one that will take care of your children when you die.

What if it was an evil, unsupportive wife whose lack of peace even led to the man's death...see life is in many shades...and the best is to write a will and manage ur affairs while alive..

The most important hierarchy on how to cater for those you will leave behind are

1. Your children
2. A loyal and dedicated wife
3. Your aged parents
4. Your siblings
5. Society at large

Now, who you entrust with what should be a function of who you are sure will ensure the order is maintained...we have seen wives who got it all,squandered it or even got duped by men and lost it all thus putting the kids is bad situation...we have also seen family members who managed things well, ensured young kids were properly catered for, ensured wife got what she needs and transitioned ownership to the kids children when they came of age...these things don't have a straight answer....but the deceased is best to manage things while alive through a will

I think writing a will is an okay idea but how do you set boundaries if I may ask?

There are some places in Nigeria in Edo state to be precise where will is not allowed and a will is an abomination. Even the courts respect the customary laws that a will is not allowed

What do you now do

What do you now do
A will is binding
Customary law is beneath civil law
A will is binding even in that Edo state
Except the man chose to not write a will due to customary issues
The moment he writes the will
Everyone MUST respect it

I like the part where the writer said one should make sure the kids of other families' members are uplifted. That's one of my philosophies. It's very important.

You're not being realistic, there's no way your father would be Dangote and you wouldn't expect him to leave you anything! Even if na goat or dog, there should be an expectation of some form of inheritance grin grin
First u comparing d man to dangote... secondly we talking his brothers not children.

I am not one to tell people how to share their wealth but my point is Niggerians see writing will as wishing onself bad. If you suggest it, they will say you want to kill the person

While you need to let your family know you have a will, nobody need know the content of the will until you die.

I believe court houses and banks provide for you to lodge your will with them.

No be until dem first write the will? Let them agree yo write the will first.

Why put children above wife? Why not wife before children since she would take care of the children better than anyone else maybe even better than the children themselves

No, it's the children before the wife because they are still young or very young. Without the wife or if peradvanture the wife dies for whatever reason, the husband can still take care of the children. That's why when a house is burning or there is a disaster somewhere or anywhere, the children are the ones given more attention to be saved b4 any adult. Take for example, i, my wife and kids were in a boat and the boat capsized, i will first of all the lives of my kids before thinking about my wife. That's why even in American movies, the same thing is done.

No one pray for early death but write a written voice or legal will if you have achieved a lot

I agree that if all lives were on the line, children should be the priority but when it comes to inheritance, I feel the wife should be higher priority than the children because if the children are still small, they won't know how to manage it. And when the children get older, they can work and earn a living. But the wife is older than the children and may need support, especially if she's a house wife.

Just doesn't make sense to give the children everything while the wife gets nothing

The wife will have hers but the children will have most of the inheritance.

Exactly. In my case, even after my dad left a will, the vultures came to muddy the waters after the man's passing. I believe it would have been worse if there was no will. Still I advocate for people getting it done.
