JOIN YOUR UMUNNA IS VERY IMPORTANT, DONT MAKE THF MISTAKE OF IGNORING YOUR KINSMEN. THEY PLAY CRUCIAL PART IN OUR LIFE JOURNEY AS AN IGBO MAN. Stop dumping your Umunna and your father's name in the dustbin. Go and make your Umunna meeting digital if you're afraid of sitting with them. Go and put their meeting online so that you can participate from USA, UK, etc and contribute from anywhere you are through computer or your smart phone. Go and document your Ụmụnna meetings in case of tomorrow. Make sure you're with your Ụmụnna anytime anyday. Because any decision they make/take even out of ignorance "stands" and can affect you and your family. From Ụmụnna you will know your relations. From Ụmụnna you will know your traditions. From Ụmụnna you will know your history. From Ụmụnna you will know your age mates, your seniors and your juniors. From Ụmụnna you will trace your father's inheritance. From Ụmụnna you will trace your paternal relations and your maternal relations. Your Eze/Igwe is from Ụmụnna, Your PG is from Ụmụnna, Your Governor is from Ụmụnna. Ụmụnna is not evil, evil is everywhere. Ụmụnna doesn't kill Ụmụnna doesn't poison (Evil men can be anywhere -- within your circle of friends or colleagues) Your father is one of them and your grand father was ! Does your father kill ? Does your father poison ? Because your Ụmụnna is your father and your father is your Ụmụnna. Forget your money and your status,one day you must need your Ụmụnna. Whatever you're doing with your Ndị yard Ndị club Ndị line Ndị friends Ndị meeting Ndị Church Ndị School mates etc can never take the place of your ụmụnna. One day, you will look for these people and won't see them but your ụmụnna will always be there. Igbo na-ekwu okwu sị na ozu sibe isi, enyi ka nwanne alaa. When you get to your village this August or anytime try and join your ụmụnna, at least you will get to know your relatives from there. Teach your children asụsụ Igbo, the language of their Ụmụnna! Jisike. Chukwu Okike gozie anyi niile, Be intentional about your people and don't ignore their gatherings and meetings point. My name is #Alexdphenom I write to uplift and encourage
