Should I Just Pay My Uncle Back? by Lukandah00001(op): 8:40am On Mar 12, 2016

I recall growing up with this my uncle staying in our house. On my dad he went to school. He got his present job also through my dad.
Sometime last year, my wife put to bed and I wasn't home. I called him as the tradition of my place stipulated to inform him the way i informed others. He pledge doing what he can so did others.
Almost a year later he sent me a message requesting the 5k he spent on my wife during the child's naming.
Am not rich but am not poor rather. Please advicentre me. Should I just pay him?

Please pay back coz wen issues start now you'll regret why you didn't pay back. Also distant your new family from people like that and try as much as possible to be a strong financial pillar in ur home to avoid people donating money during emergencies. Stay blessed!

I don't understand this whole story..

>>>>Did he lend you the money during the naming ceremony or he gave you the money on his own accord as gift?

If you borrowed the money, The key word is "borrow" courtesy demands that you pay up sir.... and if he says u should forget it then that is another matter......

The fact that he was your relative does not make you devoid from payment.... Sorry for being the devil's advocate but that is the truth...

Since he has requested for it, gift or not, please pay him back to be on the safer side.
