You’re a fool, was the property left alone or he’s an occupant, if he was to be staying in a rented apartment, won’t he be paying money or if he rented the same property out, won’t he be collecting money so money spent on the property is as a result of the property being useful to him or he making money from it so he has to maintain it so far he’s benefiting from it….


You’re so dumb man
Oyaa calm down
The guy said they weren’t staying on the property,they have their own house.
It’s human nature to feel the way the father of the guy is feeling even you will feel the same way so it’s unreasonable to blame the man.
He wasn’t the reason why the elder brother went awol and incommunicado for so long and the guy said his father basically had to renovate some of the properties from scratch.
If you have spent money on a thing because its reasonable for you to do so and someone who have been incommunicado for 37 years just show to start claiming and dragging you will feel the same way.
So I disagreed with blaming the father of the guy.
But when common sense prevails it’s only reasonable that a fair share should be given to the elder brother.

Hello all,
My dad immediate elder brother who went to south africa in the 90s is back to drag their parents property claiming to be the first son.

This is someone who after he travelled only came back once and never bothered about the affair's of the family.

Their father my grandfather died 2005 he was no where to be found. my grand mother died 2018 still nothing from him.

No contributions whatever even while their parents was still alive.

He cut all sort of communications with them and now he's back to lay claim on the properties.

The family is angry but some of the elders in the extended family are getting on is side claiming he's still the senior he was never disowned but they can't say it out though.

It's obvious he came back with almost nothing and felt laying claims on their parent property is the back up plan

No will was written and some of the old buildings has been reconstructed from the scratch by my father and yet someone is laying claim on it.

I will like to know how this will go because my father is ready to fight this with his last strength and we the children are firmly behind him

Honestly speaking, according to tradition, he is still a member of that family

The best option is for you all to gather together and sell that property

Then share the proceed

If any of them reduces this property to be sold, they will fight to finish ans one person may enter six feet

Yet the property wahala will still get worse

As for him not taking care of his parents before they died

Karma has his records

A very useless first son who provided no value whatsoever. Why should such a person inherit or lay claim to any properties, solely on the basis of being a first son?

We have some very messed up traditions that cause more harm than good, which need to be thrown away. Is it not men who created these traditions? Can the same men not undo them, if they really wish to?

Unlike you I mean every offence when I say (not to you specifically) that the useless first son should have stayed gone and never returned or reappeared to claim property.

What is wrong with some children sef? Are your hands broken or is your brain malfunctioning to a point where you cannot build or acquire properties of your own, without looking to grab what your parents had?



These matter seems very personal to you, cheesy its like you are angry with someone outside these thread ... my regard to una 1st son

His father is not. Let’s calm down and be reasonable and put our selves in people shoe before giving advice.
If you have spent a lot of money fixing something and someone you haven’t seen or communicated to in an unreasonable long time as much as 37 years suddenly show up to drag that thing with you don’t you think you will also feel bad and not want to let go easily?
It’s just basic human nature to feel angry ?
See 37 years is a long time,and it’s only reasonable that guys father will have to be the one taking care of the property including Renovating while necessary. The financial cost and implications on the younger brother all those years must also be acknowledged.
So it’s not good you are calling the man all sorts of name.
The said elder brother shouldn’t have been dragging the properties, when he has been away for so long rather he should approach the issue calmly and sensibly so there can be an amicable solution.

Please advise your dad to be careful with any fight because by tradition he is still the first son and your grand father may have still given him the lion share if he was still alive. Parents have this strong love and affinity with their first son, never understood the connection until I had my first son. Your dad should rather follow the part of peace and work hard to make money rather than depend on inheritance.

Let me frank with you. Its going to be a hard battle except your dad has a lot of money. Its going to be about the highest bidder as far as the elders are involved. No other factor will be considered except who can bribe more. Trust me.
Is that how you guys roll in Yorubaland? Damn! It doesn't work that way in Igbo culture. The man would surely take what rightfully belongs to him. His covetous younger brother thought he wasn't ever going to show up again

You should have read where the guy said his father has his own property. They don’t live in the house.

So he renovated it and kept it under lock? Either he renovated it or not, he should be happy his brother came back alive. Why the hatred if not a wicked soul? Siblings should be in love with each other no matter the circumstances.

Oh God.


You are missing everything up.

I hate using the word thief but I just can't help.

See, how I wish you know my story maybe you can relate.

It is only a dubious Man that goes about the way the opps father does.


Besides what happens to all the rents the opps father has been collecting even before the repairs? Remember the house will certainly be in good condition at a time before renovation.


Infact do you know tgth aside from this, the man have made enough for their late parents inheritance for almost 37years.



Let me honestly, the opps father should be sue to refund some money before the elder collect is share

See this boy o! So u dey side ur papa just like that because say E be ur papa no mean say u must support everything he say. U don't no what happened to your uncle over the years and your here concluding. So you want your father to be the one to share the properties or what? Just because of your uncle's long absence doesn't mean he's no longer the first son of the family. Reason with your father as a man if not after the fight your uncle will still be the to share the properties. Know that and no peace. ✌️

The sad truth is whether he disappeared or not, he's still entitled to a share of his Father's properties. Infact in Igbo culture as the first son he's the rightful owner of his Father's house

I beg to disagree with you, in Igbo customs and tradition, ''Onye lili madu neri ihe madu'',(He who buried the dead inherits the deceased estate). More so when the person also took care of the deceased when he was a life.
Re: After 37yrs In South Africa He Came Back To Drag Properties With My Father. by kenpacheeee(m): 6:39pm On Sep 19, 2023
The fact is that he is your father's brother and also entitled to his fathers properties

Una love traditions sha even unfair ones

For peace to reign, involve a lawyer, get into agreement to let him refund your dad the money that went into the renovations and then they can share the property amicably.


where there is no will or documented agreement of any kind between any parties court can't "enforce" compensation,
In absence of a "will", tradition supercede and even if anyone gets a lawyer they can only "compel" the uncle
however court negates "amicably" here, cos people don't come back from court to be friends hence why the matter must be settled by family elders.

People at home obviously don't seem to understand that it's not that Rossy abroad, too many things may have taken place, reason for him been incommunicado all this while. Probably he was serving a long prison sentence who knows. Point is, he's still the first son, and according to Igbo tradition, he's entitled to a greater share of the father's properties. U can't deny him his birth right. Pls settle it amicably.
.
If it is the greater share, then it's easier but I tot he wants to collect all the properties because he is first born.
See it is a time for us all to be wise. Your dad ought to have made his father write a will or call the elders and bequit his properties to him before he dies.
As far as you have a starnge sibling, know that it means you must take strange steps and get ahead legally in all things because there can be a problem in the future.
