Poverty is not a good thing

Imagine if this Mattew was working in CBN, with a monthly salary of N500,000 after tax and deductions.


Head of chicken would be the least of his worries. Infact he might have started his own poultry farm by now.

ChiefSosa:
I believe Mathew's mental health/condition should also be put into consideration. He could be earning millions, eat all the chicken he wants and even own poultries, but without is mental health intact, he'll still misbehave.

TarOrfeeek:
There's nothing like mental health.

That's a premeditated murder. He isolated his father, murdered him and gave reason as chicken head.

Forget woke brigade mentality. This guy felt insulted for getting the chicken head while a 7 year old gets the juicier parts.

kmcutez:
It’s called entitlement mentality. A lot of Nigerians have it, especially the men. That’s why men can beat up their wives or get annoyed if they don’t have a meal prepared for them or to their taste, instead of going to the kitchen and preparing their own damn meal, as if someone came to this earth to serve them.

ChiefSosa:
And you think someone that did the bolded does not have mental health issues?

Evil child

That man could still be alive, assuming he used condom on that faithful day, cases like this one would have been avoided.
