2:34 PM (6/12/22): "A photo of my dad, from 2014... My parents (Michele and John) divorced in 2011..." - Michael Izuchukwu
"An article which I found online, and I am curious about the basis/motive... for why such was written... Apparently, my dad was arrested for DWI (driving while intoxicated/impaired)... in 2004, 2013 and 2014..." - Michael Izuchukwu

10:03 AM (9/16/22): "Towards the end of the summer of 2020, my dad had been mentioning how he was constructing a village... in his homeland, in the context of his 'financial difficulties'... He was born in Uke, Nigeria... on 5/6/55... and died on 10/8/20, at age 65 (having been in need of a 5th heart surgery operation, as of the prior day)... I am not certain as to why he had been making multiple trips to Africa, between 2011 and 2020... but evidently, Nigerian currency (Naira) is divided into 100 equal units (each a 'kobo'), just as the U.S. dollar is divided into 100 equal units (each a penny/cent)... A Naira is worth 0.0023 (0.23%) of a U.S. dollar (23% of a '$0.01' penny), so '1' kobo ('the Nigerian penny') is 0.23% of a U.S. penny... ...the implication here, is that one could get the equivalent of a mansion in Nigeria (for a bargain), if U.S. currency... was converted... and I surmise, that was my dad's 'game plan'..." - Michael Izuchukwu
NOTE: '1' kobo equals 0.000023 United States Dollars (USD), so $1 USD equals 43,478.26 kobos...

(a juxtaposition of my dad's American and Nigerian passports, which I obtained... in the aftermath, of his death)
