Mikel is just a stingy guy. If you are rich, there is no way you avoid family demands unless they don't know where you are. This is not peculiar to African alone, according to this Man U player, Erikson, he said he has up to 40-50 people living with him in London and he considering their welfare before he move to Manchester from London. Mind you he is from Denmark, a European country. |

Mikel obi , I hope that most of your wealth and properties are in Nigeria, because I don't want to hear the story of how eboue lost his football Fortune the second time. |

casualobserver:Eyah, as long I am not bearing your name....am good! So because you spent "over 2 decades in the UK" with visibly nothing intellectual to show for it, you think you can demean a fellow being for living in the village? You have an empty skull seated comfortably between your shoulder blades. 2 Likes |

Truth is entitlement mentality in this part of our world is just too much especially when you are wealthy. But looking at it from the other side if one turns out to be the wealthiest in his family, the best thing to do is to try and see how you can stand your immediate and extended family anyway you can instead of dishing out money to them anyhow. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Mikel obi should shut up. Is this an African thing or a worldwide phenomenon? It's even worse with the south Americans who run off to Saudi just to meet up. Even pepper sellers still pay black tax, so I wonder why he's painting Africa in bad light. |

maasoap:You read what he wrote and your takeaway was that he doesn’t help his family? What he complained about was inordinate and excessive demands. A person will carelessly have several children that he cannot properly provide for and be asking someone that planned his family with two children for money for naming, upkeep and school fees. Does that sound fair to you? 6 Likes 1 Share |

MadamExcellency: My dear the matter just tire me. It's my prayer to be in a position where I be able to elevate all my family from poverty and also extend it to others. I know some people can be spoilt and ungrateful but not every member of the family. It's only in Nigeria we keep hearing this kind of complains from rich celebs and stars . I look at people like Akon, drogba, mane, eto and you see what they are doing... Not just for there immediate family but community at large. But you see Nigeria version like Psquare, Mikel, okocha and rest of them, there success is only for themselves, they only come out complaining of how people are after their money. What charity or something meaningful are they doing for their country. For people like okocha and kanu, they are only busy introducing people into betting. My prayer remains God should put me in such position to be the giver and not receiver. For Mikel he doesn't need to give his family money. He should try set them up. I know it not easy but may God help us all |

casualobserver:The thing about Nigerians is that when they are shamed for having bad character they start fighting the person that gave true criticisms instead of looking inwards and looking for how to change their ways for the better. If you are ashamed of someone exposing your people for their entitlement mentality then you need to face the people who are behaving badly not the poor man who is suffering it. 6 Likes 2 Shares |

Entitlement aside, we only feel like we don't need family when we become rich and privileged. If you feel like you don't owe your family members expecially your blood help or assistance to get them in a better place in life, you're nut. Where's empathy? Tomorrow, your kids might the one needing help. Self centred generation. |

I am not against supporting family member but how do u cope if u are from a family where ur parents decides to give birth to 13 children with little or no education and u are the mikel of that family and out of those children u av hook up gals...cultists...drunkards...drug dealers...the hook up gal contracts an incurable disease they start calling brother the mother develops high BP cos of the children they start calling brother...the cultist is maimed and in the hands of police he no only has a case but also needs medical attention.. one of the girls suddenly gets pregnant for a riff-raff and always calling for food...school fees and all..the drunkard has damaged his liver and is down with alcoholic hepatitis and they are calling brother..he has been told many times that they want to open this or that and he has given them money to rent shop but they closed the shop down and assembled in his house cos they want to wake up and be fed 3 times daily enjoying the cool breeze of the sea side. They don't love you they want to bring you down and kill u b4 ur time. 2 Likes 1 Share |
