HE ATE THE SAME FOOD HE PREVENTED OTHERS FROM EATING.

Friends, my name is Ada. I was married to a business man that lived in one of the western states in Nigeria before he died. While he was alive , I was being pampered by his family both far and near. My husband was a very successful business man. He took care of every body around him. There is this distant cousin of his that was always coming around us every time. We thought he really loved us but we did not know that he was an evil man.. This man claims to know tradition. He goes into peoples houses to dictate things that will be or not especially during burials, naming ceremonies and traditional marriages.  There was a man that died before my husband, he was also a very rich man. This wicked man mr Ugba insisted that the rich man will not be buried until the deaceaseds' family produce the dead mans' bank account details. It took the intervention of the daughters of the Land to get that matter resolved. Then when my own husband died, this man insisted that I will perform one traditional ritual which I refused. I thought this man would remember how close he was with my husband and waive it for me, but he did not. The punishment is that the villagers will not eat in your house any time you are having any event . Then one day, I was doing a house warming ceremony and the villagers were invited. Mr Ugba came in the morning, went straight to where they were cooking the food , he made sure that they dished out assorted food for him. He tasted all of them and licked his hands. When the ceremony started, mr Ugba insisted that no body should eat my food. That I violated the tradition of the land. The poor villagers obeyed him.  Just imagine , he ate the same food he asked people not to eat.

  1. But what is wrong with some people, you cannot chose which tradition to follow and which one not to. It is either you follow it or you don't at all. Anyway you didn't mention what was required of you as long as it doesn't involve killing or sex, my thoughts are that you should have done it.
