How will a man abandon his two sons for over 30 years without caring, only for him to surface now and start making nonsense demands. That is madness.

even if it's the truth, is this the best way to handle the matter? Not even in public where there are few people but social media, but the boy has forgotten his own child too will see this post later in the future

You're being biased!!! Hugely biased!!! Don't paint the issue with money. The father was abusive. The father's family rejected them. Don't bring in the mother's money. He reached out to the stupid man,the man butted him off. Stop siding with evil. Say the truth as it is!

Some of you are here bringing culture/tradition into it, a father that only remembered he had a son after death. Is there any culture/ tradition that says a man should abandon or not take care of his kids. The children are even above 28yrs, isn't that old enough for them to know a substantial amount of the truth. It's now the man's family know he has children. I'm not saying he should insult his dad , but for the dad not to think it right to be part of his children's life, mehn that man deserves no respect

Africans and their customs. The father Ws never there and he came back only to cros d line and u say d boy is wrong to point out his fathers wrongs? I personally call a spade a spade. He said what he had to. A father is not just by biological birth bt by who raised u.

Also he is a man and can speak for himself based on the issue at hand which none of us know the details in full

I tired of this sentiments in our customs that drag us backward.

There are levels he will never be able to attain in igboland. He should try running for politics for example which is always keenly contested in the east and even some chieftaincy positions.
His non-Igbo paternal roots would haunt him then. Sad but true.
does he look or sound like somebody that is interested in local positions that benefit no one but the holder.
His mother has already looted what they are looking for in the local position

How did the guy knew the parents were having issues if not the version as told by his mum. Remember the marriage was short-lived not like the were teenagers when it happened.

Do you even realize that the first thing a woman do after having issues with husband is to run away with children?
Do you know that some women will never allow you near their children except you reconcile with them?

Oga, the reason people fight custody of children is to avoid a situation like this cos the custodian will use the children against the other partner

Why on earth would the man declare to the world that he didn't know the guy was dead whereas the son had called to inform him only for him to bash his mother? The man, if what that guy wrote is true, is truly a mischievous fellow. He is truly a shameless man. He needs to apologise to his generation for that. Who tells that sort of lie, if not a mischievous, bitter and shameless fellow?

He is their biological father but no more than that to the boy. He probably feels nothing but hate towards him. He probably feels the same way he would to a stranger he hates. For him to all himself a badtard should tell you a lot about what he feels for his father, he probably sees a sperm donor when he looks at him and you can't change that.

Also, this situation is very sensitive not just for the two adults involve but also for the children. It should have been kept out of public scrutiny no matter what. It is a great I justice to subject the living children and siblings of the deceased to this nonsense. Now the whole world knows what is going on in their family. Can anyone think of a better way to damage these kids?

However the mother may have succeeded in turning them against their father or the children were smart enough to realise that he is an asshole and didn't need a mother to tell them that.

Let's not get sentimental over this. We may or may not do worse than him if we were in his shoes. I hope he apologises and they resolve thier issues amicably.

What sort of bitter truth will a young man be professing Dat will lead to him calling his father names in public and even calling himself a bastard? Truth be told, he is his father and nutin can change that. I'm sure the mum will not be at home with the boy's public outburst unless she has never been a good woman ab initio

I wonder about your root. You seem to blame the woman for everything, are you not in touch with your feminine side or are you a male? It's either one of the two although I think you are female but don't understand yourself

Why do u feel the boys story is the truth. You see a spoilt bastard telling the world how stupid he is you try to put up a defence for him. If etoromi was abusive what about the other husbands Stella couldn't stay with. What about the other men who have complained about her in the past.
Btw, is it the bastard that should inform his father officially that Maxwell died. It's obvious that the lad is a brainwashed bastard as he rightly called himself.

If the man has been out of their lives for almost 30yrs, how does it make sense that the boy should be buried in a place where he was neither loved nor wanted? Tradition right? Well traditon was made by men and isn't infallible. I wonder why people seek to uphold meaningless tradition over people's wellbeing. He had 30yrd to show them that he's their father who loves and wants them. He didn't. Now the child is dead, he's using them to claim rights and authority. Obviously all he ever cared about. That's what you get with egomaniacs. It's all about upholding their pride rather than the humane thing to do.

“Buwa and I were the product of a short and abusive marriage that ended almost 30 years ago"
.

This is what happens when a marriage breaks down and one party keeps the kids. He or she turns them against the other parent.

It is obvious that this guy was too young to understand what was going on 30 years ago and the fact that he made this statement is evidence he got this information from his mother. The Father will definitely have his own version and then the 3rd version which is the truth.

When one party keeps the kids, The other should have visitation rights in other to bond with the kids.

Or maybe the men like most Nigerian men couldnt a handle strong woman. I bet she would have been a good woman in the eyes of society if she had endured the absurd at the hands of the first husband and remained with him. Fasting and praying for him and sacrificing her personally dreams and goals so as not to threaten his ego. We know that's the definition of a good woman.

cyrilamx:
Wait o...is this not this Stella Oduah that was until recently Mrs Stella ogiemwonyi? There is something wrong with this woman. She has a big ego that she can hardly remain a man's house. So Stella has been married twice and also been divorced twice. We hope one of the fruits of her romance with Egnr. Chris Ogiemwonyi will not also take his father to the cleaner soon.

The father never acknowledged his children while they were alive,is it now when they are dead that they should become his children?

Why did he lie that he hadn't been notified? What kind of man is that to stir up controversy so publicly? Definitely not a man who has the best interests of his family at heart.

All the male's here have issues with the woman being married twice, forgetting that the man is polygamous but no o, it's allowed for a man to marry as many wives as he likes but a woman must remain in an abusive marriage and endure it until the day he kills her.

There's a difference between "Father" and "Dad". As you rightly said, he's a sperm donor, a father and nothing else... But being a dad, requires commitment. An absentee father would NEVER be regarded as a dad. Plain and simple truth. The man did not act like an elder in the family, he knew the supposed thing to do before going public. Going public was his greatest undoing. When you point an accusing finger at someone, three other fingers are pointing right back at you.


I never called him a sperm donor;that is tantamount to a Casanova. My point is that family issues especially as it has to do with a husband and wife should be threaded by care by the siblings. If they must involve themselves in it, let dem act as recinciliatory agents and not divisives. He is his father and that settles all. He is still indebted to him, knowingly or unknowingly

In igbo land, an emissary will be sent to the man to officially inform him that his son living with his ex wife is dead. Whether he was an absentee Dad it doesn't matter, he properly married the woman and she bore him a son.

The man will take a delegation to the in law place, do whatever they ask him to do and take his son for burial.

I know you did not call him, I called him a sperm donor. I mean, biologically speaking, you need sperm to make babies. As a father, your name is on the birth certificate and that's it. However, my point is remains: there is a difference between "father and a dad".

This young man's issue isn't really about his parents divorce or their issues 30 years ago; however, the beef with his father that has reached to the point of no return. Believe it or not, he's old and matured enough to speak for his immediate family, and as for indebtedness, nah, I don't think so. He's grieving his brother's demise and instead of the father using this as an opportunity to console his kids, knowing fully well that he's not been there, the best possible way was to tell the media that he wasn't informed. You expect him to smile upon hearing this right?
