What we do have I believe, is an articulation of interest, when my needs meets your needs, when your yam meets my yam we have the coming together of wants and we put aside our differences, even if momentarily and work to resolve our differences. Business does not recognise quarrels on like Melanic Trump and Michelle Obama.
It is not only a matter of stupid pride but a sign of not being economically suave if someone lets sentiments and old grudges come between economic opportunities. I have known people who have said ’ ‘ Don’t buy from this woman here. Trek 30 kilometres and buy from the other woman, this woman and I are not on speaking terms’. That is just foolish and smacks of immaturity.
I am always surprised at the lengths some supposed ‘grown ups’ would go to show that there has been a hurt or something. I once had a neighbour who spent almost a hundred thousand naira trying to get light from the nest street just because he and his neighbour had a tiff. That height of pettiness, I cannot just deal. The opportunities lost because of pride cannot be calculated.
Another instance I do not understand is the concept of inherited enemies and all. That is; because Mrs B and my mother’s and my mother had an altercation last week or my sister broke up with her boyfriend last week so they automatically become my enemies too. It is as serious as that, I know parents that have told their children ‘ you see we are quarrelling with Mama Nneka, I don’t want to see you playing with Nneka again’ Parents that encourage this type of attitude are really wrong.
