Hi guys,

Back in school, we called him oga, because he is more senior than all of us and we respect him, we were roommates and studied the same course. After school we did not maintain any contacts, a couple of months ago he sent me a message stating how broke he was and if I could help him with a thousand Naira, I had only 3k in my Nigerian account so I sent it to him, he reached out to me again a couple of months later asking for assist. At this time I decided to speak to a mutual friend who in my opinion is closer to him and he confirmed that "oga" has been calling and asking for money too. I went ahead to help him as I thought whatever the case may be, he must need it and that is why he resolved to begging.

Fast forward to yesterday, he reached out to me with the most disturbing messages

Oga:

Sir George please help me pray that the lord calls me home and grant me eternal rest

I was baffled by this and asked for him to clarify, and he wrote back

Oga:

I am tired of living, life has become an illusion to me. i prefer death, I have never imagined what i am going through right, i literally leave by begging. my landlandy took me to court, because i am oweing for more that a year. the tribunal would be coming to pack my load tomorrow

We had a discussion I explained to him how taking his life is not the solution and he should exercise some patience. At this same time, I was trying to figure out how to get the money for his rent over to him. It took the whole night for the money to be transferred and by this morning he sent me a message saying

Oga:

Sir George good morning, i really appreciate you for all you have done for me including ur kind counsel, may God bless you. I have to end it up sir.

I called him immediately and we talked and I transferred the money to him, he was grateful. I think for now we might have averted any harm that he intended on himself, but for how long? And what can I do to help him?

Woow Ramos16 how can we help him in any way? Can I know his city/state of residence.

From what he said to me, most of his problems revolve around him find a job and being able to take care of himself and hist family.

I am very sorry for the position your friend is. My advice is to try and be a friend to him. Offer a listening ear for him to talk to. Try and re assure him and if possible take him to an hospital to see a psychiatrist.

It seems the root cause of his problem is unemployment, if there's any thing you can do to help him get a job, please do. If he can't get one, let him be engaged doing something he enjoys. Also you can involve friends and family who can offer him support.

This is a good thing you're doing, looking out for your friend. Take care.

What I find disturbing is that you still call someone who supposedly lives from hand to mouth your "oga".
Is it in humility or just plain ignorance?
Please refrain from doing that before you find yourself in a condition worse than his.

Seems you don't know the type of powers that the tongue has. Just incase you don't, ask what cunnilingus does to the soul of a broken woman.

With that said.
Stop helping your friend. He is only an oga at extortion.

Well, I am going to address only the last part of your statement, I would rather prefer to help him and find out he lied to me than to call bulshit on his threats and later find out he actually took his life.

And if you read what I wrote you would see I stated we called him "oga" back in school days.

Also, out of curiosity, what does this statement ", ask what cunnilingus does to the soul of a broken woman" have to do with the context of this conversation

I'm sorry but did anyone force you to reply?? Why must you torture yourself and post such angry responses. I can only imagine how miserable you are because all you pick out from every situation is negativity.

Your life is filled with so much sadness and depression that you always have enough to share in nairaland.

Abeg stop spreading hate. Nigeria is already frustrating enough and we do not need people like you to remind us how dark the world can be.

Oga, are you new in town? If yes, you're welcome. This is Nwamaikpe, the king of sarcasms, pun, paradox, irony etal. Maybe with time, you will start getting used to his jokes and the likes.
