Popular Nigerian businessman and socialite Obinna Oyiegbu, often known as Obi Cubana, has revealed that no one in his family lives to be 80 years old.
According to the renowned businessman, his late mother attempted to break the generational curse but was unable to do so because she passed away after celebrating her 79th birthday.
Obi Cubana noted in an interview with media personality Chude Jideonwu that his family chose to hold an extravagant funeral for their mother because she was unable to lift the generational curse.
He said: “In my family, nobody has lived up to 80 years, and I’m saying this for the first time. My father died at 66, my grandmother died at 75, my grandfather died at 78, and it ran through to my mom.
“All my siblings are married and successful, and we were praying for my mother to break the generational jinx and the kind of party we would throw for her, nobody would have ever done it; we even started saving up for that. And she died on December 31, at the age of 79, after celebrating 78.
“So I said, she tried at 79 and a half, so we brought everything together to celebrate her, at least; she tried and almost broke the jinx, that was why we went all out for the burial.”
