I was told not to give up on him. My mum will develop high Blood Pressure seeing him wasting away. I don't know what else to do sis. At times i wish i had the mind to poison him silently. He was supposed to be supporting me helping the family. Unfortunately, he was a burden.

I was told not to give up on him. How is that possible please? How else can i help him? What can i do please? This is frustrating. I can't imagine crying over my elder brother. I'm tired
This thing is in almost every family,I have one,my elder brother,he didn't go to school but rather said my brothers should go, although he is not intelligent,he joined one man in business but things didn't go well,he came back,learnt aluminum and started, Dad promised him money from gratuity,so wen dey paid him,he gave my brother 200k in 2004,mum added 20k
He left with the money,till date he couldn't give account of the money, didn't open anything, remember that money was hudge then,dad didn't trust him and wanted to try him with 100k first but I intervened,
Along the line they said it's because he didn't go to school,my immediate brother enrolled him in polytechnic,he went there for 1 year next he disappeared,he said it's University,he was enrolled at Anambra State University back then each semester,he collects money from that my brother,after 5 years they asked him how far,story upon story,he came up with marriage scam,I have seen a wife,I want to do introduction,my brother will drop 50k back then thou,2017/18 , he did it two times I called my brother to stop giving,he later sent mum 100k and said when he is ready.
My brother equally gave him Mercedes 190 he changed back then, he didn't make any attempt to drive the car.
He keep been afraid of everything. What a brother!
We relocated him to Awka,to restrain him from Onitsha that destroyed him,it became worse,he can't pay his house rent,I took it up,fast forward 2020, I had accident and went for surgery, even on the sick bed I still pay for his rent, wen I returned back to work, physiotherapy and all that was eating my money gbas gbos, I couldn't continue paying, I told them to send his things back to the village.
My brother that did all those stuff previously is highly engrossed with self value project and his married with kids now,I told him not to bother. He have enough to take care of
Right now,niga dey village blackmailing Oko woman that they didn't do anything for him.
God helping me, I'm searching for a house for him,if I get and pay for him,he will leave that village.
U know what,he said he doesn't like the erea I want to relocate him,he prefers Onitsha, meanwhile that's where I stay and house rent is not even cheap there.
Once I get that done, he will be forced to go for deliverance because he can't marry as we speak, what he prefers is sleeping with a woman and she goes.what a useless folk.
Brother , you can't kill yourself for anybody, you see my experience is worse than yours shocked

FamilyRe: Should I Renovate Our Family House? by sonssyo(f): 1:51pm On May 21, 2023
JungleJustice01:
Both parents have passed no will was left. I basically leave the rents collected from the house rent to my only younger brother.

Now the house is deteriorating and I want to fix it, like give it a major facelift but the funds will be coming from me entirely. I don't have a personal house of mine but I believe an overhaul of this place can give leverage to increase the rent as it is in a good part of town.

My fear is after this investment, will I be able to recoup any funds? If I am to pass away, will my kids have any access to the property?

I love my brother but I've heard and read stories of human behavior especially in situations where there is no documentation.

What do I do?
Build your house ,but you can fix the house to an extent,give proper notice to the tenants,renovate the house and collect new tenant and the money they paid this year, you can decide to give your brother some.
However after this,just divide the house into two,it can also be considered during renovation, but you need to tell your brother your plan another house.
Then after,just start your own house different from this one.
Family stuffs, don't usually end well sha,hope you will be applying wisdom always!

And if the doctor goes on strike ,dead body no go surplus.

I think the best thing is to hire qualified advocate doctors from private hospital so that death can be minimised as long as all file for patients are kept and properly documented .
Many Private hospital even pay more than the so called government,can they even afford them?

FamilyRe: I Had Been Restless Having A Chat With My Elder Brother by sonssyo(f): 3:08pm On May 12, 2023
DownTime44:
Hi guys


Please i put up this post basically because of my elder brother. I sincerely want to know if i was wrong talking to him, or I could have just let him be. I wasn't myself ever since i talked to him, and i was somewhat having guilty conscience since then.


I have an elder brother, he's 38 years old and also the first son. I am the fourth child in the family of five. The second child is a female and she's married. We lost our third child, that's my immediate elder brother some years back, while i have a younger brother. I came from a humble background. Lost my dad while i was in JS 3, even before his death we had been hustling on a daily basis for survival, and we live happily as one big family. My mother, siblings and i do hawk daily before we could eat. All thanks to public school in Lagos, my family wouldn't have had the opportunity to basic education. We hawk daily after school, weekdays and weekend. My family was bred and brought up in Ajegunle.


Few years after the demise of my father, we struggled to pay house rent. We had to leave Ajegunle to a local and developing area. I didn't allow my family conditions deter or weigh me down. Never! I believe I'd make it in life legitimately without venturing into crime, fraud, theft etc. After my secondary school, i was into all sorts of labour work. I worked in factory, building site, cleared bushes, laundry man , just to save up and further my education. I worked for 6 years after my secondary school, bought a bike from the little savings i had and proceed to school through jamb. I gave the bike to someone who often deliver #6,000 weekly for the upkeep of my family. I was in year 2 when i let go of the bike, it was on a higher purchase and the agreement we have had elapsed. I hustled my way through school and graduated. I'm done with service last year but couldn't land a job, probably due to my age. I'd be 29 this year and most graduate trainee often request for age below 28. Although, i had a 2.1. I'm only managing in a pure water factory to make ends meet, keep soul and body together and support my family


I sat my elder brother down and talked to him. He has been hustling like every other person in the family but i don't understand what's happening. He didn't futher his education nor learn a handwork. He's 38 but still live under his parents roof. He has been doing conductor work for many years. The family had talked to him several times to look for something else. It's fine you are hustling as a man for survival but doing conductor for many years without thinking of what else to do is wrong. A family friend of ours who later got to know what he does for a living had advice him also.


The bus he was following, the driver had misunderstanding with the owner and he collected his bus back. My elder brother had been idle for months, doing nothing. He claimed he has gone virtually everywhere in search of bus he could be working with but couldn't get any. This is a family that we all had to bring something no matter how little to survive. I was talking to him as a younger brother. I asked him why didn't he heed to people's advice when they were advising him then to stop the conductor work and look for something to learn, if perhaps he doesn't want to further his education? He doesn't believe in Nigeria education, because he could count graduates without job or those with petty job. My elder brother wear almost rag as clothes. I had to give him some of my little wears I'm managing. He has just one slippers. We don't wear same size of shoe or sandals, we could have been sharing that also. He sold his phone to feed sometime ago and had been without phone. I was initially saving to get my mum a small phone but i had to give him the phone instead.


He was crying when i was talking to him. I understand the situation of things in the country, which i myself is going through. I was just trying to know what other things he could come up with. I am not happy seeing him sitting idle doing nothing. The fact that he's the first son and found himself in this condition at that age breaks my heart daily. My mum had been so worried about his condition. I had to convince her that things will be better. I don't want her to develop high Blood Pressure that could lead to her untimely death.


Please guys was i wrong talking to my elder brother?
What did you study in school?
Make we start from there
