My Uncle Refused To Help With 1k For My Education - Ken neth

A man shared a touching post appreciating his strict but generous uncle who sponsored his education and guided him with firm principles. While many celebrated similar stories, another user shared a surprising personal experience:

“Ohh chim I’m oppressed. I remember when I went for my NECO registration with my uncle. I hustled for the money and it was just 1k remaining to complete it. I thought my uncle would complete it for me ‘as I don try na.’ 😩 Guess what? My uncle took me to the exam officer and begged him to let me complete the 1k later 😭😂😂.”

Though funny in hindsight, this story highlights how strict relatives often prioritize lessons in independence and responsibility over instant help. Sometimes, their firmness is a way of teaching endurance and accountability.
