"POSTERITY DEMANDS A WITNESS"

FRACTURED FAMILY           


             "POSTERITY DEMANDS A
                        WITNESS"

Fractured Family is both memoir and reflection,  a tapestry woven with grief, betrayal,resilience, and truth. It chronicles not just events, but their meanings; not only betrayals but the lessons hidden within them. 

In telling this story,  I seek not revenge,  but remembrance. I seek not to condemn,  but to shine a light where silence has too long prevailed. 

To every broken heart,  every betrayed trust, and every voice silenced in the storm. This book is dedicated to the resilience of family to the pursuit of justice, and to Truth for Posterity. 

The pages that follow are not written merely for memory’s sake, but to preserve the truth of a family’s story- truth fractured, truth betrayed, yet truth that endures. 

May those who read find healing, and may those who hear these words remember that truth, however fractured will always find its voice. 

Posterity demands a witness, and this book is my witness.

                          FRACTURED FAMILY                           " RECENSION" "May Mama’s soul continue to rest in peace.  Beautiful writeup".- Olivia Chinyere Emeruem            "It is still surreal. The flashbacks keep coming back in successions. I still hear her voice in my head. I see her pictures and feel like she is still just a call away. "A brother who is at war with himself lacks the moral standard to broker peace outside or convoke a general family assembly to pontificate about peace when his kitchen is in tatters."-Princeclintonuzohr  This is my favourite line from this piece. The Holy Bible refers to such character as worse than an infidel.

"CONFLICT RESOLUTION"

Image
FRACTURED FAMILY As the family got bogged down by the quagmire that has the potential and the capacity to continue to shred it apart to smithereens for generations to come, friends, well-wishers, fiends and the quarreling parties alike turned blind eye to  this malady. Their negligence became a tinder igniting the smoldering smoke of discord  into a consuming flame of strife , hostility and disunity among siblings. What was more, their unwillingness, hubris,  accusations and recriminations to navigate out of this mire festered and seemed intractable. Every form of social intercourse among siblings ground to a halt, with hurtful and malicious undercurrents. Separate existence became a preference,which sacrificed communal existence on the altar of cloistered living with an eerie dash. The centerpiece of this saga was the matriarch. The situation insidiously eroded her sinew and brawniness, but she displayed exceptional strength,resilience and determination to...

"TEARFUL PROTEST FROM SHEOL"

Image
FRACTURED FAMILY   The teardrops from the great beyond flooded the matriarch's compound and the nightingale lamented ceaselessly for closure. Threatening to metamorphose into an ocean if not pacified. "My wishes and instructions prior to my journey of no return were disregarded by my very loved ones. What a heinous betrayal with a tragic implication?"  "The chasm between us though very wide, but God watches over our actions and reserves for the villain his deserts." "Exhume and gather my remains, transport them to my chosen place of burial and  there commit them to mother earth. This is the only placation to get my soul to repose in perfect peace.  My soul is still hovering and wandering desultorily. How can I  rest in peace, let alone perfectly.  Is to obey not better than sacrifice?" "While I remained with you, I cherished burial brochure. But why was none designed for me, d o I not  deserve that?"
