Comedian Igosave seems to have brought his future mother in law to join her grand daughter in Austria as he posted these pictures of them at the airport on his instagram page with the tag "Yaay mama is here... omugwo tins"
Chei Omugwo is the best thing that can happen to any mum or grandmum #fact!

ReplyDeleteOLUWÆßOBBY
Preach!!! EVE E UME
DeleteI had the most cruel omugwo stories.mum in law arrived pretendin to take care of me instead wanted mi to tk kia of ha.pretends to work in front of son and wen he is not around wants me to gve her 5 star treatment.mschewww only God will forgve
ReplyDeleteI know right ! Omugwos can go wrong!
DeleteI guess ur mum in yoruba, that can only happen wit yoruba's mother inlaw..long hissssssss
DeleteThank God my mum is still alive. Cos my mother inlaw is from hell!!! Very very very lazy! Instead of helping me, she will want to turn me into slave. Always wanting to stuff her face and wanting me to cook 5 times a day! Expects me to give her water to wash her hands after every meal! Can't even take a glass to the kitchen after drinking water!!! And she's just in her early fifties! Even her undies, she cannot wash herself! She will want them in the machine! She's the laziest person I've ever come across!!!!
DeleteAnd my hubby can't even scold her for all the rubbish! The other day I had to tell her off big time! She's a pain in my huge ass, a thorn in my flesh! Only God knows how her husband copes with her! Very selfish and lazy woman!
DeleteMy story exactly. Really painful! To think I had my baby thru a CS and barely a week, MIL refused to entermy kitchen. Said iI must do all the cooking. Plus she wrote a food timetable and pasted on my kitchen well. Smh, wen my hubby came back from his trip see as this woman suddenly became so good and caring. Plus she convinced hubby that we shouldn't get an helper and musnt allow any of my relatives live in. Choi. See stress of lifeeeeee. Till now sef the woman na my number one enemy. That was sooooo gross and wicked! Yet, she treat her daughters like angels o
DeleteYer. Yoruba MIL, wicked pretenders, selfish minds and home scatterer.
DeleteI go save run go Austria? Shuo! Naija comedy no pay am?
ReplyDeleteStella me and be the sameooooo. Mum died seven years ago. I have two kids hubby and i did everything by ourselve. I wish things are different,would love to experience the Omugwo pampering. Maybe in another world.
ReplyDeleteThank God for him.
ReplyDeleteI just had to share this Stella. Am so happy nd give God all the glory. I put to bed last december in Europe, even though my husband had invited my mum so as to be able to join us before I put to bed but the visa was denied with an option to appeal. We appealed and my mum visa had just bin granted. I thank God bcos right now am expecting my mum and she's very happy about it. She's a very strong woman that realy tried for all her children nd am glad I am putting smiles on her face. Right now, am putting all in place to make sure she enjoy her stay. All thanks to God.
ReplyDeleteWao dis is lovely Honorable i go save u are a tru son of ur parents,i salute u d baby ur woman & mother inlaw,i pray God to bless u mor & mor
ReplyDeleteMy mum was just to annoying when she came! She wanted to run my home, I made her leave after 3 weeks
ReplyDeleteMy mum too! She even made me cry a few times. Called me mumu in front of my in-laws because I said I was going to breast feed exclusively. 2 weeks later,I told her nicely that I can cope alone.
Deletesome mothers need to be shot dead
DeleteThat's a bit hash. When our mothers grow older, they tend to think we can't do things ourselves. You just have to be patient with them. When they were your age, they thought the same of our grand mothers.....pain in the neck.....
Deletelol at "na who send me" I birthed my lil munchkin last year September... my mom came for Omugwo she was really clueless about what to do maybe cos it is her first time
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed omugwo no be small,my mum works so my mother in law came first,got me stuffs,as in eh u need to see my kitchen,she took care of me,pressed my tummy,made sure I don't touch anytin. Immediately she left mumsy came,my sweetest mother,she spoilt me silly,brot wrappers,correct ogbonge foodstuff,took care of me like say I be omomo. God bless dem mothers o,e no easy
ReplyDeleteMy dear same here.I can soooo relate.May God kip our mothers 4 us.
DeleteNice... And congratz to them.
ReplyDeleteI'm with my mum,she has stressed the living day light out of me!I give her 20k monthly for feeding for the four of us,she is always complaining that it's not enough,she exhausts it in a week and will nagg the whole 3 weeks.I don't even eat well cos I have no appetite, yesterday I ate only water melon all day,did I mention I'm on exclusive breastfeeding? Went from size 16 to 10 after delivery. She says I look ill and the embarrassment she dolls out to me each time a visitor comes is sickening!in fact, I am tired of typing
ReplyDeleteI feel you dear.
DeletePolitely ask her to leave, that you can now cope on your home. Stress is the least tin you need right now.
DeleteI can relate with your story, cos something similar happened to me and I fell into severe post natal depression.
Look for a nanny DAT would com early in the morning and leave in the evenings. life is short biko
I really wonder who will come 4 me,it makes me cry,I have a step mum,who we dnt get along n she is even so clueless,when her dota had her baby,my mum taught her everytin 2 do,but she is been gone 4 7years nw,may her soul n d soul of all d mothers departed continue 2 rest in peace
ReplyDeleteAsk ur mom's sister
DeleteNo one took care of me oo.. I took care of myself the way I know how :(
ReplyDeleteI'm a single mum and as at then I didn't tel my mum I had a child cos of shame n d father of the child is as useless as they cum, e no even show face. My parents got to knw later sha and my baby is a big boy nw.
Infact I didn't rily enjoy wen I put to bed cos my mum was ill as at dat time but I insistd she came though. But tank God for my sista stays wit me she rily helped me if not na wetin I for do? Though my mum inlaw came around to help wit d little she culd.
ReplyDeleteOh! How I love omugo periods. Really looking foward to the next one very soon.
ReplyDeleteMy sweet mom spoils me silly when she comes for omugo. My sweet dad makes sure she comes with every food item they can lay their hands on. Mumsy treats me like a queen, she takes over the running of the house, cooks, washes, cleans runs errands, goes to the market, attends to visitors, etc. If I want to help, she will chase me back to the room with sermons of how it is wrong for a new mom to work or stress herself.
If I insist on helping, she reports me to my daddy and relatives that I want to kill myself with work after the stress I went through during pregnancy and labour. My old man go just call me dey hala, lol.
My own is just to lazy about,sleep,eat, bath, watch tv, breastfeed and sleep, sleep, sleep, then gossip with mumsy, hehehehe.
I can't wait for my mum to come again. Really looking foward to it. I just pray they give her enough weeks off work this time.
#mummy'sgirl
Your post made me cry. Am Yoruba, my MIL came over. She stressed living daylight out of me. It was a horrible experience. She fought with my mom the week I was discharged from hospital (after having spent over a month on admission due to severe complications) she made me ask my mom to stop visiting my house? Imagine! After which MIL showed me pepper. I cried everyday! Hubby wasn't around. Whenever I rmbr the ugly experience I just wanna retaliate. Tho have cut off communication lines with her cos am still super angry.
DeleteAwwww! I'm so sorry dear. I wonder why some MILs are like that. Mine is almost like yours,but I will rather go back to my parents house than allow her do my omugo for me (God forbid). The times she visits I use to hear nwii!
DeleteJust try and forgive her, tho I know it's not easy. I just cut off communications with mine, we only greet when we see which is like once a yr. I don't bother calling her again...
My own mother in law came for omugwo and was expecting me to cook for her, clean up & still do laundry. I have 2 boys & i never enjoyed her jare! Always make her leave after 2weeks. Maybe it's peculiar with yoruba mothers.
ReplyDeleteNa wickedness. Would she do same if she was your real mother???? My MILis as wicked and selfish as that if not worse sef.
DeleteI was in my 2nd year in the University when I had my first daughter. The labor n everything weren't stressful. I went to school the next day to write my exams. My mum was working so my Calabar neighbour took care of me.she pressed my tummy,took care of my honeypot n generally bathed me. 3days later,my mum came. Na the omugwo dryfish pepper soup n pounded yam I dey trip for. #salivating#
ReplyDeleteIs the mother in law pregnant? At the airport wearing wearing maternity gown hummmm I wonder oh.
ReplyDeleteToo local how could the daughter borrowed her mum an eye glasses upon the danful maternity gown
ReplyDeleteLooking forwod t sharing my own "Omugwo experience". For now am single waiting f d right man.
ReplyDeleteHahaha I am still enjoying my omugwo, when my mum came we were not getting along initially cos she wants me to give my baby water and I refused cos I was doing exclusive...but we are cool now....God bless her...
ReplyDeleteThe big question is what is I go save doing in Austria?
ReplyDeleteSee d wor wor guy sef, he dump I'm pickin 4 ground dey pose wtshewwwwwwwwwww
ReplyDeleteGod bless my mum,she's the best mum living,even tho she has her way and opinion towards things. Sad I've nt bn able to give her somt,and she's come to do omugwo twice. I know my story wil change for d better soon!
ReplyDeleteGod will bless my mum, for me, I had the best omugwu ever, had my baby like 7weeks early, spent three weeks in the hospital, mum came immediately we were sent back home, from then on she took care of me my son and even my husband, I went from size 10 to 14, before she left for naija. Can't wait for next omugwu
ReplyDeleteGood for them.
ReplyDeleteIf na this my bf I marry ehnn, I don envisage d suffer of my life i'll go 2ru. His mum still dey fix naiils at her age, she's really too funky sef for her own good. Has a younger bf etc. Not to mention his younger sister's dey compete with their mama on who's shorts are shorter. Hiss
ReplyDeleteI really have no idea what the child bearing experience will look like o.
To all motherless us, na God go drive fly from cow without tail.
Ha ha ha......competing for who's short is shorter. ... Amen to your prayer
DeleteOmugwo experience for me was terrible.My mother in law was clueless and didn't even make attempt to take care of me rather it was the other way round.I guess its peculiar with yoruba mothers they could be annoying.
ReplyDeleteMy mum is the best! Infact, both my parents! Totally amazing. Right from pregnancy until after birth. Our fridge is always full of food. Dad brought banga all the way to Yankee. Mum and dad travelled back with me and my baby and hubby after birth. Mother inlaw na winch though. So so msg and work so I've banned her from coming either for omugwo or anything else. Even her son dey see her and run
ReplyDeleteHhhmmm....my mum came 4 omugwo nd my husband almost killed me in her present with beatings,dats a week after I gave birth o!I almost died of bp nd bleeding plus shame.dis is a man dat I was sleepin on d floor wen pregnant cos he was jobless,since den I can't seems to forgive nd forget! Am jus gatherin moni for my house rent so dat I can move once its complete..at least I have 100k now still lookin 4 like 30k to join so dat I can get a room self contain nd move wit my son.*crying*
ReplyDeleteWow...so sorry love
DeleteWhat did your mum do ? Beating her daughter in front of her ? So disrespectful
DeleteHhhmmm....my mum came 4 omugwo nd my husband almost killed me in her present with beatings,dats a week after I gave birth o!I almost died of bp nd bleeding plus shame.dis is a man dat I was sleepin on d floor wen pregnant cos he was jobless,since den I can't seems to forgive nd forget!

ReplyDeleteDon't have a child yet but hopefully soon. I really don't think I want anyone around when I evetually do by HIS grace cos all I do at the moment is cook, house chores all the time even now when I am ill. Even when I visited them in naija, all they expected was me cooking for everyone and cleaning... Did a bit but wasn't going to stress myself for anyone. I am tired self. All I do is cook, serve, pack up and wash. ...
ReplyDeleteGave birth january thru a CS and my MIL was there to help but her help was not really enuf. I hav to birth my baby, cook for her and do d laundry. I really missed my mum. Death were is ur sting
ReplyDeleteWhen I had my 1st baby, my mother inlaw came, she can not do anything, very lazy, complain a lot about d tiles in d hus or d ac, instead of preparing pepper soup, na ogbono soup, me ke I reject am fast fast, called my mom sis to come over, becos my my mom lives in denmark, when she came, my aunty nd miL come dey drag who go cook, my hubby told his mother to leave becos he know there will be comotion in d hus. I think since then she hates me with all her power, I just over look her @time, I am preg again dis time around my mom is coming.
