There’s a man — a titled Ogbuefi chief — from Ogbunike, Anambra State. He is in his 70s now.

He has travelled to every country in West Africa. Yet, up till today, he has not built even one house for himself. Not even a room of his own.

He married one woman, left her, and married another. He now has 7 children. But instead of building a future for them, he is still cheating on his wife — at over 70 years old.

Right now, this man is squatting in his father’s house, with nothing to show for all his years and travels. A whole chief, but no foundation. No legacy. A Failure.

Let this be a warning: Old age does not equal wisdom.

If you don’t build your life when you are young, you will be ashamed in your old age.

⚠️ Titles mean nothing without responsibility. ⚠️ Grey hair without honour is a waste.

What will people say about you when you're 70?
Think about it.

OP joke is on you. Is his father still alive?? Funny guy, his big crime is poverty when jails are full of people? His only crime is sleeping around if that's true, otherwise shut up and see if you'd reach 70 and if you'd be better than him!

How many houses have you built? No vex
And by the way you still have 40 years to maintain that "better" which can disappear in a twinkle

Ahbeg. Leave the small boy.
Him never see (not experience ooo) life

Like I said, I'm almost 30 an I'm better. Any other thing you saying, is out of the point

We just want you to define "better". Better in what sense? Do you have 8 children or 3 wives? How exactly are you better?

Better in sense that I have 40 years more to correct a mistake

And if I die this hour.. I die without a lifetime worth of regrets and failure

I live a perfect 30

You also have 40 years to end up in jail or totally disgraced even for something you didn't do. You could also travel and disappear, unlike your uncle who at least came back!

If you die this hour you'd die as nothing, stuck in the ground and quickly forgotten. Compare to when your uncle dies.

You have nothing talkless of perfect. Otherwise you'd have said so. Of course you could lie but you'd have to live with your conscience.

So you see, just attaining 70 and healthy is an achievement in itself. Every other thing is bonus

This is off point. We are talking 30year now vs 70year now

Not what I will be tomorrow or next 40years

If you talk of what I will be next 40 years
Then talk of what he will be next 40 years


Cheapest answer : I'll be alive and kicking in a futuristic world of AI and space travels.

And he would be as dead as a door nail



....
I can do this all day🇳🇬

That's the whole point - there is no basis for comparison. He's had a full life. He's healthy, didn't commit suicide, or murder, or million other heinous crimes, didn't get killed in accident or by armed robbers , or a stray bullet, or a million other things, managed to survive this wicked world intact till the age of 70.
Comparing you to him is like comparing you to a two-year-old

I think I'll take my chances with the two-year-old


But you win... I give up

Good move. Had it been you came here castigating your uncle for being a philanderer, everyone will you. But you came making it sound like being 70 and poor is a big sin, forgetting that just being 70 and healthy is an achievement in itself, and that anybody can be short of money and not necessarily because they didn't work very hard!
