IYOO...

Depending on the poverty mentality we have.

Imagine the poorest person in Adeleke Dynasty.
Why will he avoid the gatherings when only his attendance can increase his net worth.

ONYE ANWULU!!!

So true, especially in the SE. Not just among siblings but cousins and extended families. The intimidation no be here o from the super rich siblings. The competition and show-offs too much. I pity those struggling in the midst of their wealthy siblings and cousins. To talk or contribute in family gatherings is always difficult. For the married ones, the pressure from their wives increases when the wife sees what Oga's siblings and cousins are doing for their wives and children. May God prosper all men struggling legitimately.
Wealthy is power , it's a global phenomenon it's human nature

She be Igbo as expected... To them, money be everything. No morals, values or norms.

Retrogressive mentality. >:

(
You are showing 1700s mentality ... isn't this retrogressive mentality? ... deep in the bush village mentality? What tribe has to do with the topic? A eg ... this is 2024 .... but then you can take the pig out of the mud but can't take the mud out of the pig.

@ topic ... too many people take their personal family issues and apply it to everyone else. A family takes care of each other ... blood is thicker than water. Some families are money worshippers... money above everything else ... you are not respected for your character but by your monetary value. How one got his riches doesn't matter ... and we wonder why robberies ... killings ... kidnapping and corruption is thriving throughout the country. Sorry for who will marry her and not be forever swimming in money.

Avoid and remain poor na..

You think anything on earth beats human resource and quality of relationships you have with other peoplehuh

You think someone that is termed "poor" because he or she doesn't have money don't have other ways they are indispensablehuh

There are problems money cannot and won't solve..quality relationship can do.

If you think you are poor...make sure you are useful in other ways...with that, luck and fortune can smile on you

If you are the poorest amongst your siblings or not doing well financially, avoid family gatherings until you have money - Nigerian lady says

Lolo Nneka Obani Wrote on her Wall:


If you know you are the poorest amongst yoursiblings or you aren't doing well financially, l recommend that you avoid family occasions or gatherings until you have money. If you must attend, kindly sit at a corner like a visitor.
Let the people that are serving the food and souvenir serve you like one of the guests, so you don't end up embarrassing yourself.
Do not go close to where the food and drinks are being served, sit at a corner and observe. Stop setting yourself up for insults.

Keep deceiving yourself. She posted nothing but the truth and it happens in most households. It's human nature and our shortcomings and not necessarily hatred for the disadvantaged person.

Though naturally, one can feel timid but that does not mean hiding. Also, what is her definition of being poor. Poverty gets levels.

It's the parent especially the mother that encourages it.
The "poorest" relatively in my family is the most respected because his yes is yes and no is no. He is the encyclopedia of the family history.

He doesn't beg and make sure the right thing is done. If tradition demands one bottle of hot, he will insist on that one bottle and no more, even if you brought more than one, he will take his and tell you share the rest among your siblings or other relatives
