Former presidential aid Reno Omokri, has adviced people to stop giving their parents money in their old age.
According to Reno, he stated that parents should be given more attention by their children and not just money.
While speaking further, he stated that most older parents suffer from loneliness because more of their friends die as they age.
According to him, He said; “Don’t just give your parents money in their old age. Give them something more than money. Give them your attention. Call them often. More of their friends die as they age and they suffer from loneliness. Ease their pain. You spend hours everyday chatting on WhatsApp with acquaintances and associates who have not sacrificed for you like your parents.”
“You talk on the phone for ages with your love interest and business partners. You have so many people to talk to. Now, imagine if all of these people that you talk to are suddenly no more, would you not feel lonely and depressed? In fact, stop reading this and call your parents now!”
