People die before they attain 80 years in my family – Obi Cubana

Popular Nigerian businessman, Obinna Oyiegbu, aka Obi Cubana, has shared a generational jinx in his family.

According to the socialite, nobody in his family attains the age of 80 before they die.

He noted that his mother was the closest to the age, but she died at the age of 79, adding that it was the reason his family decided to throw a lavish funeral ceremony for their mother because she could not break the generational jinx.

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 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.”
