simpleseyi:


Just the same way you are fighting your father for properties, you are also fighting anybody that has s contrary opinion to your prodigality

Owologbo:

They can't reclaim it because of the children.
without the children can the man transfer the lady's family properties to his family?

As much as I hate bringing this here, I need advice on ways to go about this..is it right for a father to drag his wife wealth with his son, knowing fully well, the son is now a grown man.

My mom left us with lot of properties she acquired as inheritance from her father and mother side, been the only surviving child, while she was still around some relatives wanted to grab some of it...claiming she's a woman...but seeing she had a grown up son which was me they had to maintain and stay on their lane... besides my mom was never the sluggish type.

Now, my dad is trying to drag this property with me, saying he wants to sell some of the land without even informing me... he his claiming some of house rents and lavishing it on frivolities anyhow.

Yes he's my father, he trained me up to this stage that I am, but by right I thought Those properties are mine already.since it's inheritance that's supposed to be passed down to her offsprings.....if am wrong please someone should tell me.

PeaceJoyLove:

This puss...y boy is talking about law.

Your father inlaw left properties for your wife....and your wife passed the properties to your son...and you are talking about law that you are the owner of the properties. And you dey talk of law.... dey drag properties your father inlaw passed to them. Are you normal? Dem curse you to not pray and acquire your own properties with your money?

See...dem don get you. Prosperity is far from you. You be first class werey.

Boy...you be werey without any standard. You are a puss....y. Are you sure you are ok?

There is something wrong with Nigerian men. Honestly. Just imagine the boldness this werey is posting this nonsense. Chai. Yeah...you are a werey.

PeaceJoyLove:

Poverty dey your life. The property na his inlaw get am...how he take be his?

Poverty dey your life to think this way. Poverty die die die...poverty die.

If God blesses you... na you go stand by your son say dem no born any body to come cheat him.

Haaaa... poverty na bastard oo. See how poverty turn a man to pussssy..

Poverty die die die... poverty die.

Aijeez:
Under customary law, a husband has no right of succession to the property of his wife that the woman inherited from her family. Generally, a man is seen as a stranger to his wife's family's property and has no right of inheritance to same.

Oyerinde16:


Even if its #10 dowry he paid, it's is accepted as a valid exchange paid on the head of the woman. And the man must get is #10 back if they divorce...

Legally the man owns the right to his wife's estate after she is gone, the son will own or have the right to the estate only when both father and mother, husband and wife are no more...

Or are you trying to tell me if the wife inherits her husband's estate, the son will tell the mother the properties belong to his late dad and the mother should no drag it with him... Useless lazy son... This son has the relative mentality, he can take his fathers estate and trow out his mother...

GraciousGod190:


How?

Really

I don't agree at all

If I wasn't born, do you think those property would be accessible to him?
Because he married my mother.
It would have been passed down to the closest relative of my mother kindreds

PeaceJoyLove:

Poverty dey worry you. A man who has built his house is who you wan turn to baby cos the property belongs to his mom. Na poverty. Go for deliverance.

BRATISLAVA:


According to Nigerians laws, it belongs to his father now. Unless he decides to teach the man a lesson.

Kobojunkie:


I think OP should do whatever he can to keep his father from wasting away his grandparent's sweat abeg!

neey1028:


So you think all the people advising you never build house, mumu. To build house na your only achievement. If I'm your father I will organise DNA test for you cos I no you're a bastard son �.
Your actions depicts one

I said I shouldn't honor you with response but I decide to tell you this. Learn to disagree with people's opinion without using insulting words. To your surprise I think I am richer than your generational wealth put together. Ekpa

Order of inheritance is first the surviving spouse
Before the kids

The spouse comes before the kids

PlanktonX:
How can you say your father is dragging his wife property with you.....

Are you sure you are this man's son?

Many people had been sent to the world beyond because of properties....

Plz hussle for what is yours and enjoy this beautiful life God has given you. Whether your father like it or not, he would leave the property someday, but to who?

Kobojunkie:
No! The Married Women's Property Act of 1882 in Nigeria allows for women to have and keep property of their own in marriage.

Yeyeoldman:


This is Hilariously Absurd! The property in question belong to the man unless it was explicitly willed to the son. Common people! Why is the young man laying claim to what is not his. Nothing entitles you to your mother's properties of she did not expressly say so in a written will.

Do you know that if there were to be a divorce before the woman's demise all assets and liabilities will be shared between the man and wife. Explain to me where the son comes into the equation. Don't be stupid young man. Stop oppressing the innocent wayward man who wants to sell off everything and most probably waste the money according to how you presented the case.

From what I see your father is just being lenient with you. If this gets to court, you might even do some time for harassing the innocent Man. You have no defense. I know you don't want to hear this but it's the truth.. it's always uncomfortable to hear it.

Malawian:
Share with your father. Let him know what is his and what is yours once and for all.

ezegenigbonine:


So far the did not state the person that will be in charge of her properties when she dies in a (WILL), the law state that the most eldest male of the family shall be in charge of the properties. And the most elders is the husband.

PeaceJoyLove:

Poverty syndrome.
Poverty die die die...poverty die.

goody234:
get a good lawyer and be firm your father is being greedy!! and he is trying to chance you ..Do not allow him to take over your mothers properties i repeat do not allow him to collect rent from any tenant

Malawian:

We both know if the reverse was the case, the surviving wife will feel entitled to the properties.
