Lady visits dad’s graveside after many years
The video, posted on TikTok by @chubbybitecateringservic, showed the lady’s return to her childhood home, which looked abandoned.
The once-grand duplex was overgrown with bushes, an evidence of the passage of time and absence of humans in the house.
As the lady moved around the abandoned property, her emotions took a hold of her and her sense of nostalgia was clear.
According to the lady, her family was forced to flee their home 35 years ago due to a bitter family feud.
The reason for their departure was a patriarchal tradition that favoured male heirs, leaving her mother and family vulnerable.
Despite this painful history, the lady still found the courage to return to her father’s home as she sought to reclaim her family’s past and make her father proud.
In her words:
“I visited my father’s grave and house for the first time after 35 years. We were chased out cause my mum didn’t have a male child. My father is super happy today. I am happy I did this. Love you daddy. Continue to rest in perfect peace. Thank you mighty God for this great of making my late father proud. Daddy with or without a male child I promise ur legacy will never die.”
