O O SADE, OYA NOW...

Sade is one of the popular Yoruba names and let me tell you in my personal experience that Sades are usually very vocal people not that it’s a bad thing, they just don’t know how to be silent especially at crucial times, so it’s no surprise that my Aunty Sade is exactly like that. Many have tagged her troublesome but thank God she didn’t marry into the family, if not, they would have killed her vibe but they can’t do that since she is as bonafide as any of them. Anytime my family meets for party like this, there must be drama. I have time to write this now because Big Daddy’s 90th birthday party has just been scattered and Aunty Sade is right in the middle of it.
I’ll tell you how it happened but first let me give you a brief description of their branch of our family tree. My family is that type of family that sometimes I don’t know who is related to who but I just know we’re related. Since this story is pretty streamlined, the fight was between Mama Esther and Aunty Sade. Mama Esther is the wife to Big Daddy’s youngest nephew and Aunty Sade, his last child and only daughter. What happened was that Aunty Sade went to Akure for a function and decided to call at Uncle Peter, Mama Esther’s husband’s place. Unfortunately Mama Esther was around and while they share a mutual dislike for each other, they always greet each other well. Typically, women have that high pitch voice they use when they dislike but have to tolerate each other, that’s when compliments sounding like insults will fly and they will try to prove whose life is better just from compliments. This is usually what happens when Mama Esther and Aunty Sade meet, but everyone just leaves them alone just cause we don’t want trouble, but that trouble was what Mama Esther looked for when she disgraced Aunty Sade at her house but because Uncle Peter pleaded with Aunty Sade she left, I’m sure Mama Esther thought all was well, little did she know revenge is best served cold.
I’m sure when Aunty Sade woke up this morning to start dressing up for the party she had no plan to revenge however the one who’ll eat poison will offend the one who’ll give it to him and that’s exactly what happened. Jejely Aunty Sade was serving people food when Mama Esther that was supposed to be serving alongside her sat comfortably and requested for food too, it was extremely rude but Aunty Sade still did not talk. Mama Esther now had the guts to find Aunty Sade and ask her why she was not served yet while raining all sorts of personal insults on her, that was the straw that broke the camel’s back and they literally had to pull Aunty Sade from Mama Esther but before they did, Aunty Sade had done a number on Mama Esther and the whole party had scattered cause once Aunty Sade starts, let’s just say party has ended.
Thank God most of the elders were already around for the party they kuku turned it to family meeting where they had to settle the matter. Although they eventually told Aunty Sade to apologise to Mama Esther even though she was not wrong, but in this culture of ours, the elders are never wrong.
