A Widow and wife of Late Christopher Ezeobi of Mgbuke Village, Umunnachi is facing a recreated ancient Wickedness that was practiced before the invention of Telephone.
A long gone atrocious way of displacing widows, rendering them heart broken, while the family share the loot.
The woman lost her Husband and after mourning, the brothers to the Dead Man decided, since the brother did not have a Heir, that the Woman must go back to her parents House, to make it easier for them to share the Man's inheritance in this twenty first century.
They are not concerned that the spirit of the brother will be uneasy and Vengeful..
What matters to them is inheriting something that may bring Ages curse to the town and, generation unborn will suffer the consequence of thier fathers idiocy.
A situation that should not arise in this modern time, since the Husband did not send her home while Alive, they lived a love filled life ,then she remains the Wife even at death and the brothers to the Late Husband shouldn't force her go divorce, unless they want to make people suspect them of having something to do with the Demise of the brother, which formed the quest to clear the way for total inheritance.
The brothers of Late Christopher are too much in haste to move the woman away and have easy division of the Husband ancestral inheritance, a situation that prevailed until yesterday where the Widow met one Chief Ezennia Uzuegbunam, a Chieftain of the Town, after lamenting her trauma to the Chief, he assured her that he will build her a befitting house in the isolated place the brothers mapped and buried the Husband, so she can at least have home close to the Husband grave as tradition provides.
Our reporter who attended UKA NNA at Umunnachi said that as the Chief made the promise to the persecuted Widow.
The woman fall down in tears of Joy but then the Chief is gone, leaving the woman to start telling the tale of the Angelic intervention.
The concern now is that less than 24 hours after the Chief made the pledge, he has started working on the site for the woman, a great philanthropic gesture..BUT..
The fears now is that some members of the family are heard with remarks that are never kind, they said "Oburo onye di Ndu na ebi na Ulo" (Only the living lives in a house)..
This may be an empty or juvenile rant, also may be there are plots to make the woman join her husband in early grave.
This is where the PG, IGWE of the town with other relevant agencies should get involved and make sure that nothing happens to the Widow, it is enough she buried the Husband and it is not her fault she did not produce heir.
I know there is a Son of Umunnachi in Government called Uzu, a Hard nut and my Rival, as he finds it feat to keep firing those he thought are in sympathy with me or Okwute in the Government, I know he is a Hard Nut within the Government, so his toughness should be brought to use in this case in his home town.
Somebody close to him should tell him that, Mazi Odera said there is fire in his Town and Mazi is the Fire Brigade that will douse it with water or...... as I will take the fight to him and his Town in case of the inevitable happens to the widow who is not a Native of the town, and may brew bad blood between Umunnachi and the Original Town of the Woman.
This also call for the intervention of WOMEN Right Movements and Human right groups, they should make sure that the family should see to it that the woman come to No harm whatever.
Team POg keeping the spirit of the State in brotherly mode.
