This is serious.

A great man he was and fearless lion of the Ogoni people. Keep resting in peace.

Honestly the judiciary is corrupt. Really corrupt. If those judges can go to that length, then I wonder what they would have done in the past. Think about innocent victims that're paying for the judges and others corrupt practices just because they can't pay their way through. Much as I'm in support of the independence of the judiciary, if truly those judges can go to that length then I'm of the opinion that they should be probed. 'Nobody is above the Law' but it should be done in a legal way and not otherwise. The only question I have is are they doing this for the course of justice or otherwise?

It takes more than semen to be a father. It takes more than blood to be family. Are you swayed simply because your biological father's family are well off? If they were rural farmers/herbalists/drug dealers/touts would the decision still have being difficult?

Where was your uncle who stood with your dad/mum when your mum was going through the trauma? No where!!!

If your dad's biological family all had kids/grandkids would they have come looking for you?

Its only when Nigerian families (the men especially) learn that you CANNOT abandon a child with their mother UNDER ANY circumstance and assume that "well she will suffer with the child and when the child grows, he/she will come looking for me".

If your stepdad hadnt trained you and shown you love as though you were his biological child, would you have thrived healthily, academically and mentally to the point of graduating and qualifying to work in an oil coy?

I find it insulting that your biological family think money answers all. Its even more insulting to your stepdad that they are saying they would train his children. Why didnt they train you? Why didnt they come looking for you all these years? At least they knew your mother and her family.

It would be very disappointing after all the heartache your mother went through, after all the sacrifices your DAD (the person you call step -dad had earned the right in every aspect to be called and respected as your dad) for you to throw all that away because of money.

When you were sick, who stood up all night supporting your mum emotionally whilst footing your bills - the man you call step dad

I suggest you go back to work. Tell your biological family that you need time and would appreciate they give you space/

Your dad has already given you the perfect answer, you are now a man. Choose wisely

Well said. Op, he has said it all and I think you should subscribe to what he said. You mentioned that none of your uncles have a child of their own. That might probably be the reason why they're coming for you. Forget the fact that they are rich or well connected, your mum doesn't want you to go back to them and to an extent I understand her plight. You should tell them you need time and space, talk to your mum or send people she respect to talk to her. She might probably change her mind. It's not a decision you can rush into. You really need to take your time. All the best.

May her soul rest in perfect peace

Too bad

RIP

Happy birthday

Simi all the way
