Father of Obi Abidemi, Deceased
Name means "Let not enmity destroy me"
Iroagbulam a strong warrior of Uzoma, deadly with a spear or the ceremonial axe he carried with him.
His wife, Tambuzi, was Obi's foster mother and perhaps the one person Obi truely missed when he left Uzoma. It was to watch over her children, Okpara, Taiwo, Tse, and Ogbonna, that he returned and took up his role as Eshu, messenger of the of the Orisha.
From AndTheChaseIsOn
"Do you know enough Uzoman to know the meaning of the name Abidemi, cousin?" Obi asks rhetorically. "Born while the father is away," he explains.
"You're not alone in the area of strained paternal relations. My father was one of the men that cast me from the village after..." There's a noticible hitch in Obi's speech, his warm voice catching on the words. "After my wife's passing."
Dina actually stops and looks up at him with guilt on her face.
"He still questioned, after twenty years if I was truly his son," he added. "But I have moved on, because I have something you don't. I know that my father is dead. I've been to a grave that holds a body."
From MountingTrophies
"When I was growing up, I had siblings, my Father's children. Okpara, Taiwo and Tse, the twins, and Ogbonna were all older than I and used to tease me horribly about how light my skin color was." He smiles despite himself at the memories. "Taiwo was very close to Dakarai, my wife."
