Hello nairalanders,

First of all, am sorry admins for posting this here just I needed it to get attention as I seriously crave for ur advice

Am the first son in my family with a sick father who has stroke, my mum, 2 younger brothers and my kid sis.
My father had stroke late 2019 and since then, I started running his business. My immediate younger brother once went to cape verde to husstle but came back last year wen nothing was coming out. Currently, he is in Anambra doing Yahoo Yahoo but never pick. The other one finished from uni but is yet to get something doing, while my kid sis is at home cos of ASUU strike.

The issue at hand now is business is no longer the way it used to be before cos of the relocation to a new place. (The government demolished our old shop). Income is no longer coming and the little that is coming is no longer sufficient and since it is the only channel of income, its taking its toll on us coupled with our dads illness.
Our dad has an ongoing building project which is at the decking level which I continued until the shops were demolished and two plots of land that is in the innermost rural area and is value will take up to 10-15 years to appreciate.
The conditions around us is really giving me sleepless nights and is starting to show on me. Had it been my younger ones are doing something, I wouldn't be worried cos money will be flowing from different sources but they gat nothing and the only source is drying up.

I got an inspiration which is to convince my peeps to sell that ongoing building project and distribute the money accordingly so that everybody can have something doing but wen I presented it to them, my mum became very adamant because she is so obsessed with being a landlady and said that the day it will be sold is the day she will die for us. This was sometime early this year. Now things are so hard for us that as am even typing this, I haven't sold a damn thing today.

So pls matured fellows, is something wrong with that idea or should I force them to it because there is no time. .

PS: my brothers and I are in our early 30s

Get a job... let someone else maybe kid sister run the business

obaaderemi:
It depends on the worth of the property. If selling it can pull you out of poverty and secure your future, fine. That way you will be able to build your mum another house. If not, it's better to leave the house alone and find a job.

Besides, the final decision lies with your father.

Tell us the type of business let's see if we can help you wake up the business

sisisioge:
So next is to call a meeting to discuss how each member intend to support the family. Let them understand just how dry the well is....your mom should chair the meeting.

wine and spirits

I won't ask the location, but I would advise you go into Bar, with the aim of setting up a club in future, if you can search for fund and run a bar, you will make the profit of a cartoon of wine or spirit from few bottles sold out, but doing the bar thing don't discard the retail/ wholesale that your father has started.

If the idea is okay, reply my quote then I will give you tip to run a successful bar.

Showmetheway222:
bro thank you so much for the nice tip. But as it now, I cant afford that cos sea is running Dry because of so much dependence on it. I already have that in mind but all needs to be settled to reduce the over depence. Then I will now have space to reason for mysef

Showmetheway222:
dear, it will be much easier if they all had something doing. Believe me wen I tell u that

sisisioge:


I know, right. You are apparently over thinking for other grown people. Your efforts and suggestions havent helped so far....throw it opened to all to deliberate on way forward. It is a sure way to get them on your side regarding the property or at least get another solution suggested. If your mom still says no without any new solutions...sleeping on empty stomachs, school fee-less semester, etc will be understandable. Good luck.

I still find it strange how your tribe places so much responsibilities on the first child. It is well.
