This is actually a very sensitive topic that needs to be addressed not with emotions. If you haven’t had a child with him yet, the family has every right to come for their properties because God forbid, if same thing happened to a man from your own side (let’s say, your brother), you wouldn’t hesitate to recover all his properties from his gf/wife especially if she’s young and didn’t have a child with him. It only becomes bad when you are the one at the other end.
Most women go against what the family is doing only when the deceased is not their own family member. No family will fold their arms and watch you take the properties their son painstakingly gathered for years to another man’s house.
Even you yourself aren’t going to tolerate that if the deceased was your brother or son!

The family might have learnt she was responsible for the death of her husband bcs of his wealth or any other reason. Dont dabble into what u dont know or u just read online.

If it is my place, they will simply invoke the spirit of the dead to go after his killer and if it is the wife, she wont survive that year no matter how strong her babalawo is. I have seen it happened in several cases.

Karlovych:
Hmm, Igbo culture strikes again, she's lucky she wasn't forced to drink corpse water and shave her head to look bald

Yes, the culture where "Tosin Omolola" comes from has done it: https://www.nairaland.com/8718632/father-in-law-locks-out-28-year-old-widow

...... Shocking Father-in-law locks out 28-year-old widow identified as Tosin Omolola eight days after husband's death.

MarkNsukkaBread:
What did she contribute to the making of the property?

Time... Time to take care of the children while he hustle in peace



Time is money....

Wickedfacts:
You must be from the East.
Anything to subjugate women.

Anything to put them in a safe, God ordained place is okay by me. Support, build with your husband and reap the benefits afterwards. Don’t be a consumer and expect to be trusted with family wealth.

Make sure you create a trust account for your wife and kids if you're from the east before you die.

Speak with any of the asset management companies like stanbic, afrinvest, FCMB, FBN Asset Managers etc as soon as you can

This woman don set camera again. No be she say she bring one man come abroad come deport same guy/report am to immigration when he wan use her head?

Holluwhakemmy:
Too bad just 2days after his death when they were supposed to be mourning ☹️ 😔 😢

What is even their business with the properties of a man who died leaving wife and children?

Kobicove:
I would like to hear the family's side of the story

The family has no legal side to the story at all. The man is late and left the wife and children to inherit whatever he left behind. Even if the woman has no child for him, so far they're legally married and were together till the man's dieing day..the law automatically wills the man's properties to her

Full stop

strangest:
You mean properties she made with her husband....

made with which husband, if d man wasn't successful will she be with him.

See eh this rights women are being given is destroying the planet that took men centuries to build. Am advocating that women should stop being employed and companies and striped off their voting rights, women are destroying the world!!

Oblongata:
Go to court! The properties belong to the children. Court does not discriminate gender!!!

. But the husband did not do any WILL ,.the will would had signifyed people that owns the properties

what's with the un-wifely hair, attitude and loudness?

And why on social media? Only in the South East anyway.

But madam is questionable

Segzy19:
Just be prayerful, watchful and strong because they will come for you in various ways....

It's gonna be a serious battle. Be ready to fight...

Yes indeed.
She has to be spiritually strong and ready

I'm Igbo.
I don't support injustice on widow.
But this lady.....
Her mode of dressing before the camera and her loudness leave much to be desired.
If she's a good wife, things can be resolved amicably. If she isn't the greedy type, she can choose one or two property and give to her husband's family unless if they insist on taking all, then she can seek government's support.

strangest:
You mean properties she made with her husband....

how did she contribute to the property ?

Just 2 days and you still get the heart to set camera and talk, no grief for your husband

You are an Igbo woman, you know and understand the culture. If the reverse is the case where you are the man, your siblings are likely going to do the same.
If you ladies think the culture is due for change, I think you should unanimously stand up to put a stop to it, not wait till it doesn't favour you and you run to social media.
An average Igbo, including you and your late husband is 80℅ aware of the likely outcome when death unexpectedly struck a man with no male child.

strangest:

Made with her husband as how, did you hear her saying she paid for the roofing or she bought a television in the house? As much as she and her children deserves to be taken proper care of, you want the family to sit and watch their brother's wealth thrown to jigolos right?

Does she look like someone that hustled with her husband?

This is quite common in that region, especially among people from Anambra State. I personally witnessed an incident that left me shocked.
A friend and I visited a woman on the second day after she lost her husband to offer our condolences. When we arrived, she took us into her bedroom because the living room was filled with family members holding a meeting. We assumed they were discussing arrangements for taking the deceased's body back to the village.
To our surprise, when we asked if that was what the meeting was about, she said no. She explained that the family was actually discussing how to share her late husband's property, and that they wouldn't move his body until those issues had been settled. Some of the relatives had even travelled from the village to Lagos that very morning for the meeting.
I was genuinely surprised because that's not the culture where I come from.

Adaeze should immediately seek a court injunction restraining the family from interfering with or laying claim to her late husband's property. Otherwise, they will force their way through. From what I've seen, they can be quite mean.

THE BEST WAY TO GO. PASSING JUDGEMENT ON ONE-SIDED STORY IS INJUSTICE AND UNFAIR TO THE OTHER PARTY.

Cruel world indeed. Try and get a strong lawyer and be very prayerful. I pray God sees you through.

yemre:

hmmmn I don't understand oo

As a matter of fact, this is always pathetic, particularly for women. How can some people just come after the death of the breadwinner of the family to claim the property. This is uncalled for.
"I just shared my own experience. Would love your take: [
https://www.nairaland.com/8733061/sent-12000-home-2-years

Though I will never support male spouse's family intimidating a widow, but this woman sounds like she has something to do with the husband's death.

It depends, if she does not remarry, but it not, they will come for the properties.

Arostar2023:
What if she wasn’t there when the money was made?

And the so called lazy brothers were there when the money was made?

Kobicove:

What can those lazy mofos say again?

MarkNsukkaBread:
What did she contribute to the making of the property?

And what did the lazy ass family members contribute to the making of the property. oo because they were the ones who built the house for him na. Useless entitlement mentality in that gutter region of the country.

Kobojunkie:
Why are you asking us? You chose to marry into their family. 😒😒

How will she know. and who told you she married into their family. She married her husband and not one backward, greedy illitrate family. you sabi yarn rubbish all the time.
