Obi Cubana Share Touching Story When His Wife Paid His Price
Obi Cubana and Wife, Ebele
Nigeria Billionaire Businessman, Obinna Iyiegbu who is popularly known as Obi Cubana has narrated a touching story of when his wife, Ebele Iyiegbu, stood by him when he was poor and had nothing for survival.

He narrated stories of days when he washed clothes for his fellow man who refused to pay him despite having his wife heavily pregnant with no food to eat. He also talked about a day he decided to pay his wife back in a small way which almost went wrong with his mother-in-law.

Obi Cubana said, “When my wife was carrying my younger son Zillion in her womb, she asked me to promise her a gift when she gave birth.

2 months after, Zillion came.

A month later when I was sure she could go out with the baby, I took her to a big phone shop.

She had asked me for a particular phone.

My mother-in-law went with us. I didn't know she was listening to our conversation with the dealer.

When she heard the price, her mood changed immediately. The front desk guys noticed it but couldn't ask why.

Standing right there, I took my mind back to years ago when this woman was with me in an uncompleted building.

One night being our first day of washing clothes for people, we had finished this set of dresses and the owner asked us to deliver that same night.

We had not eaten since morning because of the little money we had, we used it to buy soap and starch.

We waited and eventually went to the man's house at 9 pm when he returned from work and handed the clothes to his wife.

She took it into their room.

1 hour later, no one came out to see us. We waited and waited until the household finally came out and excitedly I felt she brought our money.

She approached me and said she wanted to lock the door, they're going to bed.

My wife was pregnant, she had not eaten and her stomach was beginning to hurt.

We got up, walked out, and left their compound. They never paid us till today. It's been a decade and yesterday evening I went to wash my car, lo and behold, the man who pleaded with me to park it on his side so he could wash is the same man for whom I washed dresses and he refused to pay me till today.

He didn't even know me.

I only introduced myself when I paid him and was driving out. Never seen a human statue but I think I saw a human being standing like one yesterday.

That night he did that to us, my wife and I trekked a distance going back because we didn't have any money for byke.

Finally, we saw one boy charging phones for people, my wife gave me her small Nokia phone for us to use and borrowed money from that boy so we could eat.

The boy graciously gave us 1000naira and kept the phone. We never saw that phone again.

Back at the phone shop, I knew nothing could equal the price of her sacrifices. I brought out my card and gave them to pay for the phone.

Till we drove home, my mother-in-law didn't say a word in the car. She was worried that her daughter just wasted my money.

She called her into the room and started complaining bitterly and my wife told her a little story about us.

She couldn't hold back her tears and she came into my room to say thank you Inlaw.

When you have a wife that stood with you in your trying moments and she fought with you to conquer, the little you can do is appreciate her.

Show her you have not forgotten her love and sacrifices.

Several marriages hit the rocks during trying moments. If yours survived because your spouse had to stand with you, never take it for granted.”
