Hmmmm this is very thick
Conpat:
This is happening in my own family right now. My mother was always telling my older brother that our father's house was his own.She will say things like do you want to spoil the kitchen sink and block the drainage system, don't you know this house is yours.

My mother was always talking with my older brother in private and filling his head with only god knows what.My brother will misbehave and when confronted he will fight with my older sisters and be saying things like do and go marry, this is not your house. You have married, go to your husband's house I don't know what you are looking for here

Today he is over 40 and still living in our father's house with our parents. My father was telling me that to even buy bread or gas in the house he does not, yet he works. I think he is waiting for the day our father will die so the house can go to him like he has was told over the years.My father has never said anything about the house being his own or talked about a will or inheritance, but mother and son since decided who is getting the house.

I like my mother she is honestly not a bad person just flawed but this thing you have talked about is so real and I don't know if some mothers do it knowingly or unknowingly. She has now seen how her 2 male children are useless and not helpful, last month I sent her some money and she was thanking and blessing me saying it is we the female children that are actually helpful. I said to myself so it is now you know.

I pray I don't make the same mistakes with my own sons. Me and my sisters want to put money together to renovate the house for our parents comfort but one is not very interested and she has been asking, why should we spend money renovating a house for our brother to come and inherit. He is not even the first born child.

Sorry for the long talk, your post just triggered me to talk. I also support what you said on another thread about training children to be independent and responsible enough to hustle their success instead of fighting over inheritance and fathers properties. I have noticed that it is mainly male children who do this dragging of inheritance and fighting for property

He is a very principled man. Very religious and doesn't play with his God been a devoted Muslim. Extremely rich and bless with four grown up children with the second of his children getting married in a month time.

He retired from the bank 2 years ago having risen to the pinnacle of his career in the banking industry having served in different capacities for almost 35 years.

Yes, the wife is uncultured and ill-mannered. He knows already and has been managing her all these years.

He is presently in court seeking to divorce his wife and has vowed that nothing would stop him from divorcing his wife.

My question is what could possibly make a man thrown in the towel and walk out of his marriage after so many years together?

I will like to know.
He's fed up with her.

Probably, he has seen a more matured, well behaved woman and he wished he married her instead of the woman he married first.

Many men just want peace in their homes and will pay anything to get it.

You’re underestimating the power of a peaceful life.

I fully support his move.

Despite the financial challenges Nigerians are facing, some women, instead of them to keep praising their husbands before their children and pragmatically appreciate their consented efforts, they start bad mouthing them all because they want to shift the children's attention totally to their themselves only. They want them (children) to love them unconditionally at the expense of the Man in charge. This is when you hear the statement, Bàbá gbogbo ayé (Father of the entire world) just to discredit the husband especially if he has more than a wife.

Don’t you think the person in the best position to answer this question is your uncle?

I will never understand how people would bring their PRIVATE family issues on a PUBLIC forum, seeking for the advice and opinions of strangers. Beats me.

He should not divorce but Let him Mary another wife. He will be fine with this option.

All through the years he probably lived apart because of work but now he's forced to live close to her. I know someone like that. He only stayed in the marriage cos he worked in Abuja and family lived in Asaba. But after retirement he had to go back to Asaba. Few weeks he left the marriage.

An outsider cannot and should not ever judge the happenings in any home.

A cultured child knows that his uncle's wife is your aunty or your mummy and cannot be addressed as "uncultured".

True life story...
I grew up knowing a very angry woman who was married to this rich gentle man. the kids preferred their dad. It was when the woman died that we got to know her story..

She loved this very poor man fed him and took care of her husband with her money but when he got rich he married a second wife and the woman had been acting spited (no joy) ever since.

So all the kids born after that fact never got to see her carefree joyous self until they heard and understood her story.

Remember the ant that is eating the plant is on the plant and while the plant becomes hideous the ant runs fat.

Every action the woman ever took was to secure her's and kids' future above all else.

Work had been taken a reasonable part of his time all the while and as such he was able to balance his wife's attitude without much stress but having to spend all his time swallowing her wrongs now is nothing that could kill him within a short time and your uncle is not prepare for that. So let him be.

A very valid question. I think the truly vile and toxic never really change for good, they may tone it down for a season or reason.

But, the moment that season or reason passes they are right back to their true selves/nature. Imagine 25 years of domestic violence? I would have stopped praying and fasting by the 2nd year if not sooner and taken firm action.

Some situations in life require the use of our capacity to think and action, not prayer and fasting. I like to think even God becomes silent to certain prayers, while wishing we would use our brains to think then act, instead of working his last nerve, with incessant religious regiments.
What firm action will you take.

He is a very wise man and wants to live long. My Fmr boss had to abandon house with everything plus one car for wifey and run for dear life.
We did Rambo style evacuation me , him and his official driver one morning when the wife was at work to pick few personal effects because she would have killed him.
Guyman came to office one fine morning with puffy and swollen eyes. One was completely shut. She attacked him with pestle but he dodged it so she used something to hit his eyes. He usually went home late to live like a prisoner in his room in the flat. I advised him to japa before he became the late Mr. B. Las Las guyman don marry again dey live peacefully .

Women, especially mothers, have a way of turning children against their own father.
Yes, it is bewitchment but not the type you see in movies, this type of bewitchment starts from when the child (especially sons)is a baby, it grows as the child grows and unfortunately, very few men escape this type of bewitchment.
