    My mother is not perfect.

    ‎She talks too much. She complains about little things. And sometimes, yes, she annoys us.

    ‎But one thing I’ll never forget is what she did in 2012.

    ‎My elder brother wanted to travel abroad.

    ‎Visa application. Passport. School admission.

    ‎No money.

    ‎My father said, “Let him go and hustle like every other man.”

    ‎But my mother? She didn’t wait for anyone.

    ‎She took her father’s land the only thing she inherited from her family and sold it for ₦3.2 million.

    ‎She gave everything to him.

    ‎He travelled.

    ‎Years passed.

    ‎He started making money.

    ‎He stopped calling.

    ‎Then one day, when someone asked him why he hasn’t sent money home, he said this:

    ‎“My mother is not clean. I dream of her chasing me. I think she’s a witch.”

    ‎This is the same woman who sold her only inheritance for him.

    ‎She heard it and broke down.

    ‎That was the first day I saw her cry until she couldn’t breathe.

    ‎She said:

    ‎“So na witch dey borrow you wings fly abroad?”

    ‎And now, every day, she still calls his name in prayer.
