Life turned exceedingly difficult for Mma's Uncle and his wife as they embarked on their tough journey. He secured a loan from the bank and invested it in his wife's business. Unfortunately, she squandered all the money, leading to the closure of her business. Despite not having children, she kept making extravagant demands from her husband, leaving one to wonder on her expenditure. The situation worsened when the bank seized their house, which had been put up as collateral.

Unwavering, she failed to heed the warning signs. Mma's Uncle proposed relocating to a more affordable dwelling, but his wife staunchly refused.

A cautionary tale surfaces: a man dominated by his wife's whims may only recognize his folly when recovery is beyond reach. He found himself unemployed, stripped of his sole income, with his wife still resistant to any form of economizing.

“We shall be traveling to the village for my brother's coronation as Eze Igwe III of the Amazu Accent Kingdom,” Mma's Uncle announced, envisioning a semblance of joy amidst their turmoil.

In response, his wife decided to concoct a prank.

“Darling, I neglected to tell you - my mother's birthday falls on the same day as the coronation. We must celebrate in my village instead,” his wife cunningly said.

“Truly? In that case, we'll send a message and a birthday gift to your mother,” Mma's Uncle offered, attempting to mediate.

“No, we are attending my mother's birthday in my village, end of discussion,” she declared with finality.

“What then, shall we purchase for your mother's birthday?” Mma's Uncle inquired, seeking compromise.

“Simply buy her a car and a few other things, that's all,” she casually replied.

The suggestion left the man in utter disbelief.

“From where do you expect me to conjure such funds? Times are especially hard for us; I'm jobless and contemplating selling our cars to start a business I can manage,” Mma's Uncle explained, the weight of their predicament bearing down on him.

Their home turned into a battlefield as she berated her husband, hurling insults and exacerbating their strife.
