Sterope:
Your dad doesn't owe you a master's degree. Immediately, he said he wasn't going to sponsor you, I take it you didn't have one on one conversation with him about it. He should have kept to his promise but there is no crime withdrawing his obligation which he did before you started your programme.

Also, it sounds like there are unresolved issues between you and your dad.
It's like you didn't read the story.
He said that he want me to do my masters.

You need to wake up my brother. Thank God you have a father that pays for your undergraduate. My father could not pay for my undergraduate because he had a severe illness, but that did not stop me from finishing my bsc. I completed my BSC and Masters through the grace of God and hustling because my parents could not help me. I have worked as a bricklayer , waiter & sale boy at night at Ojuelegba .Today through his grace, I completed my Ph.D. Even if someone promised you money, it is not your money; it is a promise. Wake up from slumber; it appears you are angry and bitter against your father. The fact that You are thinking about disowning your father shows you don't understand life. People are struggling on their own to have OND.
You need to look inward and stop blaming your father for your limitation. A man limitation is the limitation of his thoughts
Go and hustle bros
Thanks for the advice.
I have overcome the setback already

What if the loan was no longer feasible? Redirect your energy from being angry with your father and focus on seeing yourself through school. Baba has tried, at his age he needs the pension money more than you do whether he promised you or not.

From your narration, you were the one who called your father during your service and informed him of wanting to go for post graduate studies and he bought the idea. It is not as if you were into a high paying job and he told you to resign and focus on postgraduate studies.
If it's no longer feasible he would have told me and I ll accept it.
He can access it but reason best Kno to him he don't want to

You shouldn't have turned down a job offer for a part-time postgraduate study because in most schools, timetable is flexible enough to accommodate working students. Also, don't blame your dad too much because the frustrations of training children in school in his old age is also getting to him. You never can tell also- his pension may not be as regular as you think...this is Nigeria! Besides, who will pay the cooperative loan for him? He's probably weighing his options or the loan may not be forthcoming! Sometimes we need to pity these elderly people who still have dependent relatives in their old age, especially with no free or subsidized medicals!

My take: Hard as it may sound, you need to get anything doing to sponsor yourself while you keep working on your dad, because dropping out is not a good option at this stage and disowning him is childish and selfish until you walk in his shoes.
He is no longer training any children in sch, he is jus recklessly spending his money on frivolities,
Even went as far as acting like a philanthropist in d community

Defer and go earn to continue at a later date. Nothing posted here will make your father continue sponsoring you from his monthly pension.

Your father is a great man for seeing you through this far.

You're just an ungrateful entitled spoilt brat who thinks his father's pension should be handed over to him.
Your are jus talking what you don't know.
Do you know I was a joint sponsor of my undergraduate with him.
So don't say what you don't know

Change your mindset about life. Your father money is not your money. You need to think inward and move with your life. He paid for your undergraduate, but he declined to fund masters . Wake up from your slumber
After he has already promised to do so of which I didn't pressure him.
He made it clear that he wanted me to do my masters

You've not told us what you've been doing that made the poor man have a change of mind as per sponsoring your education.


It's possible you've not been useful to him except going to him and be demanding for money in a rude manner
I never did ant thing to warrant this Mal treatment from him.
I don't ask him for money nor material things that much. If I ask him for anything and he's not willing to offer me I rest my case.
Those excuses I narrated is what's he is standing on as the reason and nothing else

Disown your father because he is no.longer interested in financing your postgraduate studies? Go ask people who their fathers are still alive but weren't even involved in their primary nor secondary school education.
My plan was not for him to fund it considering critical nature and my past experience with him
Infact when I got the admission I wanted to decline it because I want to fund it myself and I wasn't in a good position to do that at that moment because I wasn't financially enabled.
I wanted to buy another pg form and get a good job to fund in preparation for next yr admission.
But it was my mom that compelled and coarse me to meet him.
I told my mum that this man is not capable of funding this program considering my previous experience with him.
I succumbed to her advice and with family friends present that day he made a decision to fund it

I never forced him made it a compulsion for him to do it
He was the one that told them that he wanted me to do my masters

OP, if you can stop worrying about the man, do so. Not saying you "disown" him, whatever that means, but ignore him and accept at this time that he is not of use to you and your goals. undecided

Call on your mother and any others that you can gather help from so you can at least pick up the pieces, find a job and save up for your tuition and education that way. undecided
Exam is starting this month, which miracle job will I get to pay fory tuition.
The school fees is 170k
Family › Should I Disown My Father And Forget About Him? by Legendguy(op):
I'm on the verge of disowning my father.
The story is long but I will cut it short.
It all began last year when I was in service, I called my father informing him of going for post graduate studies. He bought the idea and when I came back from service he gave me money to purchase the form and I did and proceeded with the application.
Due to covid 19 restrictions we wrote the entrance exam March this year. So I was offered part time post graduate admission
Bfor I was offered the admission I was working as a sch teacher and the pay was very low and during d holiday I had health issues and I was at home recuperating. During that period there was a misunderstanding between us and a family friend came to settle us, and right in front of the man, his wife and my mother, my father declared his decision to sponsor and fund my post graduate studies. He pledge to take money from his cooperative to fund it along with accommodation. I live a state away from the school. He is a pensioner receiving steady monthly pension of 200k monthly after serving in the military.
So the following month I proceeded with the screening and I started lectures immediately. He gave me 40k which I used for Dept registration, pg screening and collected my degree certificate.
The problem started early October when during the screening period I declined job offers that I applied for so as to focus on the early part of the admission.
The problem started early October when I went to discuss sch fees because exam was mid way approaching but to my dismay he tolde bluntly that he doesn't have hands in funding my Masters anymore, meaning he want to have a uturn. I was confused because he can't jus Allow me start something and abandon me Midway, leaving me hopeless, dejected and frustrated. I called our family friend to come and beg him and to also know how I offended him. He began to open up by saying he hasn't see any usefulness in my education. He narrated history of my education from secondary school, company training, few years of writing jamb, one yr polytechnic before I withdrew to university and how I studied a useless course coming out with lower grade. I asked if he didn't know all this before he agreed to sponsor but he couldn't answer so we begged him even kneeling down and he succumbed to the pressure and he promised to see what he would do.
The following day I met him to discuss about fees and accommodation, he didn't say much then on Sunday he left home and went out and came back sweating, he said he went to a church his friend invited him to meet a prophet and he came with a written prophecy report. The report highlighted every one of us in the family but I focus on my own which reported that my father should not spend money on me until he do some certain things. My intuition told me that the man forged it jus to evade his responsibility. I went to meet the man that he says took him to the church and the man denied that he never took him to any church.
At this period I was not my self because we kept on calling people to come beg him even calling his relatives but he kept on giving excuses and always on the defensive side. He called me failure, lazy levelled lots of allegation on me and manipulated his way when I reported him to people and make them to be against me
Reality later Dawn on me that this man want to ruin my education. The worst thing is that I have already started even as far as attending lectures, assigned to a project supervisor and even loosing a job offer, and he's about to ruin my plans of even working because the place I currently live with him is very remote and far from City center.
Currently I'm stranded going to two months now, he hasn't giving me any money, I borrowed money to be attending lectures and getting school expenses
This same man is sponsoring some children's education in the community, two children I'm an expensive primary school, that's just the annoying part of it all.
So now I'm about to disown him, I would make life miserable for him. He must surely pay for the frustration and depression he has put me through.
Since he depended so much on monthly pension I wish federal government should jus stop it for him
Pls I need your contribution before I forget what's on my mind
Mods help me push this to front page

The law of God doesn't breed all the aforementioned ...

It is your wickedness that causes all these.
You dominate all the resources that is meant for developing the north....

Almajiri is system suffocated by lack of finance. Poverty is a direct result of economic domination and exclusion. Degrees are not unavailable. Marrying four wives will not stop as it is never a problem but a great social system. Once we assert control on what is rightly ours, that self concious timidity will evaporate and be replaced by confidence and bold enterprise. Up to the Seventies we were the richest people in Africa. As the central government grows and  takes control of resources our wealth progressively dwindles. As the southerners intensify drums of hate and aggression we draw back to give peace, that is never forthcoming, a chance.
Oh I see, that's why buhari is doing pay back time by dominating Nigerians with Fulani, as evidence in appointments and resource domination.
Now I know where the problem is coming from. You guys are doing things without considering the future.
VAT, anti grazing law is just an inch of what will be coming.
Ffull resource control is next, recently niger Delta governor's were demanding 50% oil derivation.
Expect more the bfor 2023
If you guys won't allow for restructuring then get ready to be citizen of northern Nigeria republic
