This is a lesson.

Not money here...power.

They like that word eh... Sacrilegious

The man that just died very recently... life truly does go on.

Na waa! The man is dead and gone o. Instead of uniting as a family and mourn him, rather they choose to fight for power. Very typical in Africa. You can just understand why whites sometimes will their wealth to dogs and cats.

But I believe there are elders and they know what to do

They should just disregard her actions and do the needful
