He further stated that some families struggle to support or celebrate the success of their own members, adding that jealousy and betrayal often undermine unity.

“Who told you that you have a family? Some of you are too known. Ask yourself how your family treated you when you had no money.

“Someone died in my family, and when I went to the funeral, family members came to ask for my contribution. I asked the elders how much we were expected to pay, but they refused to tell me and said I should give any amount. I refused, and they went ahead to make contributions and later announced at the funeral grounds that I was not part of them,” he said.

Kwaku Manu further advised individuals to be mindful of how they relate to their families.

According to him, individuals should prioritise building themselves before extending support to others, including their parents.

“The way some of you are struggling to take care of family members, your family may not even care about you that much. I built a house for myself first before I went on to build one for my parents,” he added.
