BinamRex: this your experience is very much in most african societies and communities, and is part of the reason why the Nigerian diaspora is still at mediocre level compared to other nationalities.......the typical africans would contribute money if you fall sick or they're doing burial or wedding anything as long as that money would not advance your life and stop you from asking for help from them. 6 Likes |

Very wrong talk! I have a cousin whose husband is one the richest in my state. He can connect you to a job with just a phone call. Plus he is on first name terms with the state governor. He has empowered his own siblings and they are all doing well. But my cousin has refused helping her own people If we see her anywhere she always puts up this kind of "I am bigger than you" attitude. This is somebody that we grew up together, ate together and went to the same primary and secondary school. For now we've let her be. Na God dey raise person up. 6 Likes |

Bornsinner7: If you read the post very well, you saw where she said you can force a horse to the river but cannot force it to drink water. What if the person refuses to be responsible to work? Will you as a brother force him to do that? Do you know there are people who are just comfortable being beggars and not wanting to do anything for themselves even if you choose to help them with money? They will squander it and come back to you for more. You can't change those type of people or help them to be rich no matter how you try. 10 Likes 1 Share |

Bornsinner7:This one is worse than giving them money. They'll run down the business without a second thought. A friend on mine did something similar to his lazy elder brother, he got a warehouse at main market (Onitsha) and began importing electronics, and made him (the brother) the manager. Do you know that his lazy elder brother squandered both capital and profit on women despite being married and other lavish lifestyle. Today the business is dead and buried, and this same elder is still insulting his hardworking younger brother for not assisting him whenever he request for help. I've learnt one thing in life...don't be too quick to display your success to your family members. Especially the extended ones, cos the lazy ones amongst them will see it as an opportunity to cash out. Just maintain the average live standard and keep them at arm's length. You can relate with the hardworking ones who are recording similar success with you for ideas and encouragements, but stay far from the lazy ones. Cos even if you give them dangote's refinery to manage, they'll run it down, and still find a way to blame you when you ghost them. 21 Likes 2 Shares |

It's good to help your siblings when you have the money at least don't let the gap between you and then to be too much. Try and establish and fix them somewhere. 1 Like 1 Share |

Ekakamba: True that moment would eventually come especially with the females, imagine an outsider all in the name of marriage telling ur own sister that she can't see u!!!!! Or that she has to take permission from him before she meets u!!!! That moment is scary, but me for one won't place my own wife & children necessarily above my siblings, I would help when absolutely necessary! |

D6thSense: I had to deactivate my WhatsApp and up until this moment, I am not on WhatsApp due to pressure from family and friends who think that once you leave Nigeria, you begin to swim in ocean of money. I strive so hard in another man's land, send them money. Instead of using the money for something productive, they useless it, as if that is not enough, they would go and tell more family members and more friends as the case may be. On daily basis, I receive nothing less than five account numbers and request for money. A friend was asking for 350k to pay for rent in Gwarimpa when he is not working. Another friend wants to marry and is demanding for 500k, after giving him 150k for rent. My siblings all stopped working because "brother dey abroad". If you keep sending them money, you are enabling their laziness. They have my phone number, but since I deactivated my WhatsApp, NO ONE has called, of course it would be too expensive for them. Bros, pray make you jam some kind family members and friends wey them the address for this topic. Nothing seems to be enough, nothing! Give them 500k today, tomorrow they will come back with 1million naira request, just turn them down and they will write a very lengthy goodbye message and end it with, "I will never ask you for money again". A friend of mine whom I know that his dad does not joke with education, asked me for rent for his apartment in school, I thought, well, things may be difficult for his dad, I sent him the money. The following week, he was back, asking for school fees this time. What would you do? Still "give" according to you? I have to stay away from them for now and focus on my parents and my immediate family before I lost my sanity. It is so frustrating. I sent my cousin money to rent shop for himself, he used it and gamble. Now, I vowed never to send him money again. So if he remains poor, I am to blame right? I just don't want to go on. Because the list long die. 31 Likes 4 Shares |

[quote author=kingthreat post=100083262]Bullshit. God places some certain people in certain families to lift them up. When you see yourself in that shoe, don't hesitate to do the right thing. Take your family into happiness. Let the grace around you spread to them. Linda Ikeji did it and is not complaining Don Jazzy did it and is not complaining Dbanj, Tuface, Otedola, Adenuga, Adelekes, Dafinones, Murray-Bruces, etc all did it. That is how it is all over the world. Only greedy people with vendetta against their families will rather help strangers than their blood. [/quote I agree. 1 Like |

OjukuwuHusband: You just hit the nail on the head. I couldn't have said it any better. A black man would rather keep his siblings in a perpetual state of poverty than assist them to be financially independent. Their fear is that if they assist their siblings to gain financial independence, there won't be anyone to send on errands. And they also fear that their siblings would begin to rub shoulders with them. African parents are also to blame. The most successful child becomes the favourite even if he/she is the youngest. If my parents accord me respect and affection because of my financial status, won't I be tempted to prevent my other siblings from rising so I won't have to share my parents respect and adoration? 4 Likes |
