All of una for this thread dey ment, we will go ahead with a proper wake keeping for our late friend, that's what he would have wanted. We will use another venue if the family members continues to be unreasonable.
We don go plenty wake keeping together with him , his own won't be different

Pat081:
Why all this nonsense comment we should all know the part of the country they come from ,if it south west state they will never do that for 30 something yrs old man

shortgun:

Who are you to shut me up, are you mad? >:

Namaster:
Your group of friends sound inconsiderate and DUMB!

A family lost a relatively young man and you hired a DJ to turn his funeral arrangements into a fuckfest.

Be solemn.

Tragically we lost a close friend to the cold hands of death who passed away in a ghastly motor accident.

He was in his late thirties to early forties,unmarried, no child, and a Christian from the North west.

In solidarity, we his friends, proposed to hold a formal wake keep for him at his Abuja residence and promptly began the preparation process. This included securing the services of a DJ and arranging refreshments for the gathering.

Certain members of his family objected to the idea of the wake keep, contending that it was inappropriate for us to engage in partying and funfair following the untimely passing of their loved one. They insisted we limit the gathering to just a public address system and a choir to sing, nothing more.

Some of our friends are threatening to hands-off and withdraw their involvement from everything about the funeral including not attending the burial and allow the family members do whatever that pleases them.
Others are of the opinion that we should ignore the family members and go ahead with our plans since we are going to be paying respect to our late friend and not members of his family.

What do you guys think?

GreatVocalist:

What the heck?

Wallade:


The family has little or no control over you guys, you need no fund from the family so I think you guys can go ahead with your plans.

You have shown respect to the family by informing them about the event. He was their son and he was also your friend.

However, keep the celebration on a low key. Drinks, food, DJ and others are fine by me. You can also take it away from his residence.

Cheeryfeet:


You people are insensitive, Child like and immature.
Why throwing party in guise of wake keeping in a family that's mourning for a live cut short?
And so called friends are threatened to abandon the burial plans for the family to do what they like. Before nko, it's the families right to do and plan as they seem fit and lastly you don't have any grounds at all to disregard the family and go ahead with the party.

Vlibray:
Person die at age 40. Una wan go hire DJ ?..
Ha !
And from your comments, I can see you are the one pushing the agenda.
Please abort ok..
Your friend was too young.

BadBradley:
I wasn't trying to shut you up.

At your late 30s and early 40s it's a tragedy you haven't outgrown your acquired foolishness.

You're trying to usurp and dictate how a family will grieve their own son because you have an animal impulse for alcohol and party and lack the solemnity to acknowledge grief.

I know you're already in your 40s but it's not too late for your mother to consider late term abortion for you.

We the sane and sober demand your exit from the face of the earth.

Social misfit.

CoronaVirusPro:
Reasons why you have to kill all your senseless friends before you die.

trespas:
My condolences, guys in the northern part of Nigeria they do not celebrate death it is a solemn affairs calling for reflection n reminder to all that its a garment all must wear. So to d family it's strange what ur team is proposing

shortgun:

You are a compound fool who was raised in a broken home where etiquette was never taught.
Our late friend will be given a befitting wake keep the way we deem fit, the way he would have loved it to be. You dumbos can go n die. Nobody loved our late friend more than we do.
Idiots

Even in the South,nobody celebrates the tragic demise of a young man..

Who's celebrating here?
Poverty has distorted your perception to the extent you interpret every act of comfort as leisure. Would you assemble accomplished individuals in a place without making plans for them to be comfortable? What if they decide to stay away?
Na you be the first person to lose a family member?
You dey ment?
Thank God, the immediate elder brother was sensible and has given us go ahead to hold the wake keep, if not I would have slept comfortably in my house on that day

cravingmind:


All I see here is that, the friends are all trying to show off, there's money to spend.
You'll notice this from their response to the deceased family.

NeoWanZaeed:
May Allah never let us have this set of dumb friends.


Why can't they pack the money and give his family instead of wasting it on nonsense burial

OChimex:


Again, that brings the question to common sense.
Why spend money when the person you are spending for doesn't know?
Let them hold off and spend those monies on their own burials....
Afterall some people build their grave when alive

shortgun:

If we want to act insensitive we will all be in our houses and enjoy sleep for the night. Do you think it's easy to abandon the comfort of our homes to spend the night outside for our late friend.
None of the family members knows our friend more than we do.
His immediate elder brother has given us go ahead to hold the wake keep, every other of his relatives can go and die
