Tech entrepreneur and iROKO CEO Jason Njoku revealed on Twitter a few
days back that his absent biological father, a man he has never met
before in all his 33+ years on earth, suddenly wants to meet him. But
Jason says he's not having it. Below is what he wrote on his
blog...
"So my son is now 6.5 months old. He is easily my greatest work. My
family beyond all the success in business remains the most important
thing I have achieved. Only those from a ‘broken’ home can truly
understand that. A happy family is the ultimate sign of success. To be
honest I haven’t really started truly understanding what it is to be a
father. Currently I'm just muddling through. I haven’t met my father
before. Ever. So its all on the job training. So as you can imagine I
was surprised that after 33.2 years my own father decided it was time to
reach out. Time to have a chat. Time to connect. Success has many
fathers. Failure has none. #NotHavingIt."
Dear men, you don't have to have a relationship with the mother of your
child, but you must have one with your child. That is your flesh and
blood. How you can walk away from him/her is beyond me. If you're an
absentee parent, that child or children that you abandoned will make it
big, without you,
and one day, you will be filled with regrets. Mend
your ways before it's too late.
