That is how a doctor dragged a booming private sec sch with his children after his wife's demise, he blatantly told the children that he knew their mom before they were born...he ran the sch dry up to zero...

If ur mom didn't write a will then both u and ur dad are potential inheritors.

Put urself in ur dad's shoes. Are u saying ur dad has no stake whatsoever in ur mom's inheritance?

Remember ur mom was his wife.

You know this is another angle the OP could look into. If the marriage between his father and mother were never in fact registered, maybe OP could use that to his benefit. What do you think? undecided

Traditional weddings and common law marriages are recognized by the Nigerian Constitution, the boy would still be screwed by the justice system.

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
No, not really. It will be passed to him first and then after his demise, his relatives will inherit it(if you weren't born). That's the law.
You shouldn't be thinking of inheritance until your both parents have passed on.

Marriage, according to Genesis 2 vs 24 is simply an agreement between a man and woman to become husband and wife(marriage). The very same husband and wife on whom the curse in Genesis 3 vs 16 is placed on by God..
Implicated are the very same husband and wife(one) that is a marriage. undecided

God didn't place that curse on single women or single men, but on men and women in marriage(husband and wife) .I.e. on marriage itself.. undecided
So you are saying that God is against marriage? You maybe should check the meaning of a curse. If marriage is cursed as you claim, it becomes a sin to marry. But God said, it is honorable to marry and he that finds a wife has found a good thing not a cursed thing. We obtain favor not curse from God.

Inheritance is tricky especially when it was not written. That your mother inherited assets and labilities from her father do not become automatically yours, and under unwritten will they are assumed to be that of your father.
Let's say it was written, for example all assets and liabilities from ... et al has been transferred to your mother et al, you re a part of the inheritance.
But in this issue, your father is at will to sublet a part of your mother's inheritance to you.
My suggestion when one is sick, he or she visit a doctor in an established hospital for medical assistance.
Hence you re legally sick, seek the assistance of a lawyer.

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.



If your dad married under the Act, he is the first person entitled to the properties of your late mum.

In my own opinion, morally your dad should have left the properties to your care, he shouldn't even claim it

Your family is not in order, please don't be offended

Did she leave a will where she left the property to you? If so then please go and get a lawyer and let them write a letter to your Dad to back offf from the properties otherwise he will be sued. If there's no will or any documents in your name then it will be hard cos your father may be her legal next of kin which will give him the right.

Forget story... and stop being petty over nothing.

Your father doesn't need your approval to do whatever he likes with your late mom's inheritance which happened to be his wife. Whether you are gown up son or not is inconsequential.

Your father and mon are one and they brought you to life.

Oh thanks. I thought same too that spouses are the first beneficiary, but when I saw someone say it is for kids, I felt he was speaking from a legal perspective and edited my comment. Anyway, this issue seems deeper. cheesy
it only seems deep because it's a man that is suppose to inherit his wife's property. If it was reversed now, people won't waste time to say that it's now the wife's property. I actually like this particular thread just because it exposes the hypocrisy of most people.

what belongs to your mother also belongs to your father, so technically the property still belongs to your old man. If you could be fighting with your dad because of his and his wife property, then I wonder what kind of relationship your mom and dad hard when she was alive.
It belongs to his mother. These are properties her parents gave her and she owned outside of the marriage. It is the mothers inheritance.

Your father is definitely entitled to SOME SHARE of his wife’s property and vice versa, in Islam though

There is nothing to reverse here. It is two men fighting and one has rightly tagged his father financially irresponsible. Yes it is strange that an elderly man would want to sell off his wife’s INHERITANCE and it is indeed deep that his own biological son would be fighting him over it.

There is no hypocrisy to be exposed. Just address it like you would if a woman wanted to go sell off her husband’s inheritance when they have grown kids.

Guy your mother is your father wife.your mother property is not your business go and do your own hussle lazy man.

Why did the useless father not hustle his own money?

This should serve as a lesson to hustling women, if you have substantial amount of money or property in your name, better write a will as soon as possible because if you die, one man will claim to own you and your properties because he paid bride price and then decide to spend your hard earned money on side chics and marrying new wives while he leaves your kids to suffer.

1. Nothing of what is written implies that God is against marriage. It simply says that God's design for marriage was forfeited by man and what is currently in place is the world's take on marriage. undecided

2. According to scripture, God's curse or judgement is consequence pronounced by God for rejecting God's Law. undecided

And no, a curse is not a sin but a consequence of sin. What you claim above(statement above) make absolutely no sense of any kind when applied to the other curses that God also proclaimed in that same context. For instance God cursed woman in child bearing, does that then make having of children sin against God?, undecided

3. God cursed marriage means God cursed marriage. It doesn't mean God no longer recognizes marriage nor does it mean God abhors marriage it simply means God cursed marriage- it is no longer the Holy union that He had designed and desired for for in the beginning. Simple! undecided

P.S. That which is unholy does not please God. undecided

False. If your mother did not will her property to her husband, he cannot claim it.

A husband (as well as other members of the wife's family) can only fight for his wife's family if she died inter state. Then customs and traditions will come in to settle property sharing.

At OP.
If you don't want your father to exhibit any property you legally inherited from your mother, contact a competent lawyer. He will first issue a cease and desist letter to your father and if he does not obey, institute legal proceedings. But then, you should be prepared for the backlash from him and his side of the family. They will first blackmail you and then disown you.

that's why I questions the relationship between the man and his wife. If there marriage was near perfect at the first place, the properties should have been registered with the name of the man.
