My Only Brother Has Been Afflicted With Mental Illness Because Of Land by Nobody: 12:51am On Oct 06, 2019
I am a kind of person that don't believe in voodoo or jazz but with what is happening in my family now, jazz dey o. my only sibling (we were 3 in family though but our last born of 15yrs died last year) that was doing well in minna suddenly returned to village in Enugu and don't want to go back again.

My mum and some kindred took him to federal neuropsychiatric hospital Enugu where he spent one week and ran back to village. Though I spent over 60,000 during the period he was admitted there. We were thinking he will get better but he wasn't. A lot told us it is something spiritual. my parent visited some prayer house and they told them my brother is afflicted because they want to inherit my father's lands.

They went to a church today at Enugu and the pastor told them to bring 100,000 before he can do anything. is salvation not free again? my daddy has no amount of money and he already called me to send it which I won't send because that pastor sound so dubious. Giving him the money is not even the problem but what if he just collect the money and nothing changes?

If you know anywhere I can take my brother to in Enugu or Enugu axis please do let me know. He's my only sibling and I love him so much

Pretty sad to not only be at the verge of losing your only brother but also be at the verge of losing a family land.

I'd advice you do everything in your power to ensure that your father's land is not lost.
That land alone can transform your lineage.
People back away from land tussles because they are ignorant of the bigger picture.

Besides, the enemy MUST not have a last laugh over a complete victory.

For your brother,
In your best interest and for safety sake.
If he has gone mad, take him to Oye Emene or Ogbete main market and leave him there.

There are so many other mad people there.

Tough decision for someone you love but once a mad person is always a mad person; before he wakes up one night and sends all of you to purgatory before your time.
We've seen several of such cases.

Shalom.

Dragging land is like literally dragging ground which dust..

Now you can never really own it because you will return to it as dust. Meaning it owns you.

The land dispute may just be coincidental with your brother's mental health though..

Nevertheless, I wish him quick recovery

Don't be quick to assumption. Table all possibilities before you reach any conclusion.
Check if your brother smokes, check the work he does in Minna and the people he associated with. Explain the situation to these people, they might have useful information.


If your Brother talks to himself, laughs to himself, and acts stupidly then it might actually be madness but if he just isolates himself and act oddly, then maybe it's sth else.


And for the Pastor, no give am shi shi.
God can't work through a Pastor that demands such amount from people on dire need.

Heart of man is wicked. This wickedness surpasses social, geographical, tribal or religious boundaries. That's why it's not good to term the whole of Fulani tribe has killers because of the heinous crimes of few of them or term Northerners has terrorists because of the cowardly acts of few of them.
Those responsible for this evil are probably close relatives and family members or same clan men, whatever happens to blood is thicker Because of one land that after you die your bodies will end up adding to it's nutritional value. cry

It may be best you bring him to Yaba or Aro in Abeokuta if there's nothing your side. You can simply rent a cheap room somewhere in Ikorodu or Akute area.

It may be stress of a profitless business that he is in. He may feel bad that you've spent so much and nothing is coming out or that he is not making it and feels frustrated.

I'm not that superstitious but truth be told, spiritism exist. If you suspect that's the case, perhaps end the land feud on the condition that your brother improves. They can keep land while you can have a healthy brother. If however your brother gets no better, then it may simply be a chemical imbalance in the brain.

Please note that for many, mental health issues arise when they become adults. That may be your brother's case. I hope with good treatment, he is able to recover

I am not advertising Church, But your story touched me. If you can come to Port-Harcourt visit Omega Power Ministries (OPM), you don't need to see the pastor to pray for you, just take assignment and it's done. It's not the only Solution
to your brothers problem, but this is surely the solution. No payment, all you need is prayers.

Sorry for the lost of your kid brother. As for your brother with mental illness, have you try to ask from his friends over there in Minna if your brother uses to use drug? I think this is important before you concluded that someone inflicted him because of your father's landed properties.

Use that money and travel to minna.

Ur answer lies there.

Do a thorough investigation, then take him to hospital.


Be focused. It will end well. Convince your parents that it's better to look for lasting solution than fake and temporary one. I know the heat is on them.

No church, I repeat no church will heal him. Forget about all the staged miracles. Have been there and know how it works.

Omega Fire Ministries, Auchi, Edo State. He will be made whole by the grace of God. Any pastor that charges money for prayers, run from them. Freely you receive, freely you shall give.

You don't believe in voodoo, stay there till your family is wiped out. You said your last born died, now the only boy is mad, your village people are not worried about your parents, they want to wipe out the younger ones knowing that the elderly ones don't have a long time to live. The pastor is fake, 100percent fake, if your brother is taken to that pastor, the madness will be treated but the madness will return. That is how fake pastors operate, greediness for money. I would have said you should look for another pastor by yourself, or meet a trustworthy relative, but since you don't believe in voodoo........... You can also copy your posts to religion section since you are looking for help within your state of residence. Voodoo exists.

What was the diagnosis at the federal neuropsychiatric hospital Enugu (the hospital was just about 5 mins walk from where I lived in New Haven). Find out who his circle of friends were, when he was in Minna. Was your brother ever chemically dependent?

Don't give a dime to a charlatan in the disguise of a religious leader.

Pls take him to adoration ministry and leave him there

Meanwhile, if your dad is contesting any land, pls advise him and your immediate family to withdraw

Their target is to take your brother who is his only heirs

You guys can afford to buy land in future

Better still make peace with the people involve in the land matter and they will revert whatever they did

Your family should just remove shame or pride just to save your brother live

People are wicked and can do anything because of land

Now Oga, the bolded above is the main reason why NwaAmaikpe has made himself an Artificial madman that he is today.....He has made a sensible and Hopeful statements in his early days on Nairaland.....Yet, people like you, the Op, and a larger percentage of Nairalanders kept tagging him a Madman simply because his Ugly but truthful statements pricks y'all at the Painful parts of ya bodies....

And now he is here to show you guyz that madness by this particular comment he has made on this Thread... grin

I keep saying it.....You people are the reason why NwaAmaikpe has Artificially gone mad on Nairaland by giving back what you people gave to him.... He wasn't like that in his early days on Nairaland?... Y'all are the reason why he kept and will forever keep dishing out Comments that reeks of Inhumanness and Heartlessness....

And for those of you that has ever tagged NwaAmaikpe a madman, we will always be here to read your thread about how you will want us to suggest for you the best Psychiatric hospital you or your Relation would want to visit for rehabilitation.....Point a finger at somebody and the other three point back at you...

The pastor your family was proposing to take him to, is he a psychiatrist as well as a pastor? If he doesn't have that qualifications please don't waste your time and money on him. He is simply trying to use the situation to cash in on you and your family... Please go to a doctor and ask if they can recommend a psychiatrist for u..

If u want to go by the spiritual angles too, take him to a psychiatrist first get him examined. you can always invite a pastor to pray for him while he is in care facility.

Again I don't think voodoo was the reason for your brother's mental health issues..

Some doctors and nurses might even confirm here that some drugs when administered to a patient could have some reactions or side effects around the brain .. You brother is 15, not in the supervision of your parents I guess. So u don't know what substance he was taking, drinking, or smoking.

U can't pinpoint what the issues are OP. And please stop going about blaming people on issues that u can't substantiate or have a concrete evidence..

Secondly if you know the reason for the first and it's not related to his current predicaments, carry your Bros to Enugu Ezike or Igala, I hear say those people strong well well for Juju.
