Of all the foolishness displayed in human existence, waste of resources on expensive caskets takes the crown.

I don't know if anyone has had discussion with God and was duly informed that the quality of casket plays any role in how the corpse will rest.

Or did anyone see it either in the Bible or Quran that caskets can provide any relief to a buried corpse?

34m can get a decent well furnished apartment in some cities in Nigeria for God's sake.

What I know is that carcasses get devoured in few months after burial. Infact, 2 years from burial, the grave can only be identified but everything go don become sand sand.

These are wastage

u see how stupid people can be?

ok

This still fill into our INFINITY statement.

I am so proud to belong to the INFINITY crew.

This is Igbo culture ...it's a reflection of how we value the Departed

No matter how one may look at it, it's a waste of resources. Inside that grave, no more social class.

Ok o!

Casket doesn’t carry one to paradise.

I trust my bro over there, they will one day exhume the casket, bury back the corpse and go away with the casket to sell

Which glass casket cost 34m. Bloggers should fear God na & learn to allow d dead rest. What you saw above was just a motorcade & not his casket. His casket wasn't up to that amount.

But using 34 milllion to fund Boko Haram and Fulani militia daily is okay ko?

Don't mind them they will discredit anyone including the dead just for traffic

ok

And so?

One reason I love Islam.

Where is the receipt to show the casket costs 34 million naira?

Don't you know most bloggers in Nigeria are stupid?

Believe everything you read online at your own peril.

Ok

If this is an Igbo culinary, then it is a display of the rot in the Igbo tribe.

A culture of wastefulness is a rotten culture.

Yeah. That's why you drink and become drunken at the burial of children. What a cursed culture.

In Igbo culture really ...expect u are older than the dead person u are not expected to eat or drink there when the person is below 50 years ....

U know nothing about Igbo culture ...u just hate igbos for nothing other than u see them successful that's all

I remember when I was in the university. we went to bury an Igbo girl of 22 in her village; she wqs involved in a ghastly motor accident.

It was appaling to see people getting drunk after the burial as if they were celebrating.

That culture is not excusable. It is a rotten culture.

You should morn the passing away of someone so young and not be celebrating.
