A 128-Year-Old Nigeria Man Still Has The Letter Of 1918 That Confirms His Age by Lovelink1991(op): 9:23am On Mar 07
A Nigeria man of 128 years old still kept the letter of 1918 that confirm his date of birth. He is still very strong and healthy.

You can watch the video of his family celebrating his ability to still keep such documents save

I’m looking at grandpa and asking myself: Do I really want to get to this age? I don't envy him one bit.

Instead of the usual "Age with grace" cliché, I think I’ll just wish him sound health.

Honestly, reaching such age could rather be a burden to the person! Imagine suffering old age symptoms for that long! Old age is a disease on it's own! I just want to be alive to birth my children and help them stand on their feet. Maximum of 85yo is okay for me!

My dear it is grace and the kind of food they ate in those days that helped them age gracefully.

I don't really want to get this old...
92 years is okay by me if I still have sound health.
At this Age you can't enjoy much.
No drinking of alcohol, no smoking, no fking.
Even food will be like medicine

Nobody can determine when he or she will die. When God says your time has come nobody can stop it and if God says your time is not yet nobody can kill you

What kind of nonsensical video is this?

The guy is not even ashamed to say they didn't initially know the real age of their grandfather

So you don't even want to reach the age of Obasanjo who is 89, not to talk more of Soyinka who is 91 years old?

My mother died a little above 100 years. In her later years I didn't cherish it. No more age mates around. She was lonely and alone. I want to live long and leave at the time I will not be a burden to anyone.

Well I don't know how it works in the SE, but in the SW it is very common not to know the age of your parents and especially grandparents....and who born you to ask them outright!

In fact I know people over 60 who still don't know the age of their elders and are scared to ask them outright before it is seen as a handshake that has extended to the elbows grin

You know the white has taken over since the 18th century and African originally have our languages.

There has been a primary school in Nigeria since 1843, secondary school since 1849,

So read your history bro

Do you know why I like the Western world...they make use of even the cheapest opportunity to promote their supremacist agenda,if this grandpa is a westerner (Caucasian&the rest)they would have used their main stream media to promote him as the oldest living person on earth

Unless I am guaranteed of strong health at such old ages. Forget the pictures of Obasanjo, Soyinka and Biden you see in the media, those men might be fighting great battles with their knees, hips, ankles, eyes and other body parts in reality.

You don't know the health battles those men you mentioned are fighting. Their pictures you see in the media should not make you think all is well with their healths
