Estate Succession, Inheritance, Wills and Trusts - Have A Plan
Quote from Ndubuisi Ekekwe on June 29, 2022, 9:24 AMEstate Succession, Inheritance, Wills and Trusts. “Nigerians, in particular, tend to react unfavorably when this topic is brought up, but it is a fact that we should have in mind :- Death is certain, whether unexpectedly or after a long and fulfilled life. Even in life, one needs to have his or her affairs and interests in order, when the overall objective is generational progress and prosperity” - our legal expert begins.
I understand that - no one wants to think about it. But not thinking about it does not fix the problem - what happens if you are not here? Would your family have access to those properties, bonds, shares, houses, etc you have accumulated?
In this piece, Barrister Emmanuel ifeanyi Ogbuka writes comprehensively for Tekedia on what everyone should desire to do. It needs to be part of our professional processes. I suggest you read it no matter how emotional you could be!
