🔥 “Daddy, This Is Not Charm — It’s Your Nerves.”
Obiageli x Her Father.

[Scene: Evening. Generator hums in the background. Obiageli enters the sitting room and sees her father rubbing his legs again, wincing silently.]

Obiageli:
Daddy, you’re rubbing that leg again? You never sleep?

Daddy (groans):
How I wan sleep?
Obiageli, this thing wey dey do me no get name.
From my foot reach my knee — it’s like I match charm.
Hot current. Pins. Needle. Sometimes e go be like say my skin dey peel from inside.

Obiageli (sits up sharply):
Match charm ke?
Daddy, it’s not juju.
This thing has a name.
It’s called neuropathy — nerve damage.

And it’s not coming from the village.
It’s coming from your food, your blood sugar, and years of not listening to your body.

Daddy:
Ehn? Nerve? But I no get diabetes na. Doctor say my sugar still dey okay.

Obiageli:
You don’t need to “have diabetes” for this to start.
Your sugar has been dancing for years.
You drink malt like water.

Bread in the morning, eba at night, coke in between.
Then that typhoid three years ago… they gave you 4 different antibiotics.
You stopped eating meat, stopped eating egg. You said it’s “too rich.”

Daddy, your nerves are hungry.
You didn’t match charm.
You matched decades of nutritional deficiency.

Daddy (shocked):
So all this my pain na food cause am?

Obiageli:
Yes oh.
Food. And the gut damage from drugs.
Your nerves can’t function without:
—Vitamin B1 (thiamine)
—B12
—Magnesium
—Choline
—Protein
—Proper gut bacteria to absorb all of them

And all you’ve been eating is tea and bread, custard and paracetamol.

Daddy:
But Obiageli, you know say I don’t like egg…

Obiageli:
You don’t like egg but you like pain?
Let me be honest with you, Daddy.
If you continue like this, you may not be able to walk again.

This is how it starts.
Today it’s burning feet.
Tomorrow, it’s numb hands.

Next thing, you fall and break bone because you didn’t feel the floor.

We are not waiting for that.
Starting tomorrow, we’re fixing your food.

Daddy (sighs):
You’ve become my doctor now abi?

Obiageli (smiling):
Call it what you want. But your healing starts now.
No more cracker biscuit.

We’re going back to real food — meat stock, bitterleaf, eggs, ogiri, okra, liver.
Your nerves are not dead. They’re begging.
Let’s answer them.

🧠 Neuropathy is not old age. It’s not charm. It’s not village people.

It’s long-term inflammation. Nerve starvation.
And it can be reversed — if you catch it early.

If your feet are burning, tingling, zapping…
Don’t sit there blaming your village uncle.

Blame your bread, your malt, your indomie.
And fix it.

Don’t forget to reach out for a diet plan. Share and tag your friends.

Let’s help our fathers walk again — without fear, without fire, without lies.

I think this egg philosophy is working o.😂 Gladys Nnaji Chinyere

Happy children's day to my princess and all other amazing children around the world.
