Really? Would you cremate your loved one for this purpose?
It's two things...best not to marry from there or like the OP said, navigate it with emotional intelligence. These people are not as hard as they appear...if u no get mind, dem fit wreck you.
Another thing is that most people abandon their "homes" until unfortunate events like these so the villagers see it as "payback time"
A friend went through this but luckily he had good standing with the youth of his village...these youth held the so-called elders and traditions deemed excessive and unnecesary at bay and dude was able to do the butial and leave.

[quote author=EmmyMaestro post=140033351]Nigerian caregiver reportedly dies after working 3 days straight abroad without sleep[/b]
A 40-year-old Nigerian caregiver has reportedly died after allegedly working for three consecutive days without sleep while trying to raise enough money to complete a house he was building in Nigeria.
The incident, which surfaced in a viral video shared on social media, has triggered emotional reactions online, with many expressing concern over the pressure some migrant workers face while trying to support their families and finance projects back home.
Colleague reportedly recounts final conversation
According to the narrator in the viral video, a Nigerian colleague who reportedly spoke to police said the deceased had been taking multiple shifts at different care homes without sleeping for three days.
The narrator quoted the colleague as saying:
“Before the shift change, the guy told him that he has been working different shifts, different locations for three days without sleeping.”
He added that the colleague questioned the caregiver about his decision to keep working despite his condition.
“He asked him, ‘Why are you working like this? What is the problem?'”
According to the narration, the caregiver explained that he was trying to earn enough money to complete the house he was building in Nigeria before August.
“He said he has a house that he is building back home that he wants to complete next month, being August. That is the reason why he’s jumping from one shift to another for three days without sleeping.”
Caregiver reportedly refused to leave work
The narrator claimed the caregiver later told his colleague that he was no longer feeling well before the shift ended.
“Before the end of shift change, the guy said that he’s not feeling fine.”
His colleague allegedly advised him to go home and rest.
“He told him, ‘If you’re not okay, go home. You have not slept for three days.'”
However, the caregiver reportedly declined, saying he needed to finish the shift to receive payment.
“He said if he goes home, there’s no way for him to complete the shift and they won’t pay him because of the shift.”
He reportedly collapsed while feeding a client According to the viral account, the caregiver continued working despite feeling unwell.
The narrator alleged that the man suddenly collapsed while feeding a client.Violence & Abuse
“In the process of trying to feed a client, he gave the client one spoon, second, third spoon. He just slumped and died because he had been working for three days without sleeping.”
Expressing sadness over the incident, the narrator questioned the sacrifices many people make in pursuit of financial goals.
“This guy wanted to complete the house back home by next month. Who is going to complete the house now?”
Sad 😢 💔

Suspended till hopeful second term...to be executed along with others.
Other nations are making education as free as possible but una own na opposite...Awon asinwin...both them and their supporters.
fergie001: The Federal Government has suspended the proposed review of registration fees for the 2027 West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) and the National Examinations Council (NECO) Senior School Certificate Examination (SSCE).
Where are those always claiming south africans don't commit crimes🤣 They think other Africans are their enemies meanwhile Orania or whatever is under their noses with it's own currency(ORA) and rules...a place where these xeno black South Africans dare not approach or they"ll be shot on sight.
Then you'll see them mocking Nigerians...what a joke.
You know the interesting thing? After his 8 years of talking rubbish, he would relcate to that same UK with his family to go spend the little he has gathered like all his predecessors...then they too would start earning same £2600...
You'll never see them choose to remain in Nigeria after their disastrous government.
yemmight: This one na Oloriburuku. Wetin dem take us for?
Why do you have to impound every vehicle with tinted permits when officers can just login to the website and confirm if a permit is fake or not? Ae thing with the ecmrs and vehicle registration. Ecmr and autoreg sites have all this info.
They just want to make money. You'll have to pay to get your car from the station impound lot...abi is it free?
The Anambra State Police Command has explained the rationale behind its ongoing enforcement exercise involving the impoundment of vehicles fitted with tinted glasses, clarifying that the operation is aimed at strengthening security and not intended to harass or inconvenience law-abiding residents.
The clarification was contained in a statement issued on Sunday by the Police Public Relations Officer of the Command, SP Tochukwu Ikenga, amid growing public reactions over the exercise.
According to the Police Spokesman, the exercise targets all vehicles fitted with tinted glasses, including those whose owners possess tinted glass permits. The exercise, he said, also targets unregistered vehicles, as well as vehicles with concealed, covered or defaced number plates.
SP Ikenga explained that the exercise was initiated to enable the Police to verify the authenticity of tinted glass permits, detect forged or fraudulently obtained permits, enforce compliance with vehicle registration and number plate regulations, and prevent criminal elements from taking advantage of such violations to evade security checks and perpetrate crimes.
According to him, intelligence available to the Command has shown that criminals increasingly exploit tinted vehicles and improperly identified vehicles to conceal their identities and frustrate law enforcement efforts during criminal operations.
The Police spokesman acknowledged that the exercise might cause temporary inconvenience to genuine motorists, but, however, explained that the action had become necessary in view of the prevailing security situation and the Command's determination to enhance public safety across the state.
He further emphasized that the enforcement operation is not targeted at victimising any individual but is strictly a security measure designed to safeguard lives and property.
The Command appealed to residents to cooperate with security operatives and exercise patience while the verification exercise continues, assuring that officers involved had been directed to carry out their duties professionally and in accordance with the law.
The Police Spokesman also reaffirmed the Command's commitment to sustaining proactive policing and other security measures aimed at denying criminals the opportunity to operate within the state.
Anyway, 40 is not the end of the world...Its never too late.

A man was lucky to see firefighters who he never expected came to help him put out his burning car in Enugu.
It was burning very terribly to an extent that everybody was screaming when the firefighters coincidentally came in.
JUST IN: see the moment a man's Mercedes-Benz SUV suddenly caught fire somewhere in Enugu, Fortunately, a water tanker was passing by at the time, and the driver stopped to help put out the fire, preventing the vehicle from spoiling completely pic.twitter.com/0w0tVft3h1
You're not bothered about the victims...18yr old girls that have been abducted and most likely about to go through hell...they'll most likely be r@ped and married off....nooo...it's Obi that is your problem...0p0nű....
TemplarLandry: This doesn't look good. Watch how Hobi will crawl out of his cave to spew junks.
Tell the 1d10ts defending sh1t....dem go explain, explain, explain no evidence.
Most of these politicians are products of poverty...their parents sold akara and co...but good governance under the likes of Awo, Zik etc gave them good, FREE education home and abroad therefore saving them from a life of penury...so they believe Nigerians must suffer
They want you and your children to do akara business while their kids school abroad then come back to lead y'all as directors of NNPC, CBN, EFCC and as politicians...those kids will then also tell you to go do kuli business.
That's all they've been doing since 2015...explanations on why they can't do better than the pdp the demonised.
Odewaleadesoye: The debate about Senator Oluremi Tinubu's comments on akara, agbado and kuli-kuli has divided many Nigerians. Some have defended her statement, saying there is dignity in labour and that many successful people started from humble beginnings. On that point, they are right.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with selling akara, roasting corn, making kuli-kuli, or engaging in any honest business. Millions of Nigerians have raised families, trained children through school, and built successful lives through small businesses. Honest work deserves respect.
But that is not why many Nigerians are angry.
The real issue is that Nigerians are tired of being told to manage hardship while those in power continue to live comfortably.
When a government is performing well, citizens are discussing opportunities, innovation, jobs, infrastructure, healthcare and education. When people are struggling to survive, every statement about poverty naturally becomes controversial.
Yes, ₦50,000 may help some petty traders. It may help a woman already selling food or a market trader who only needs a little support to restock goods. That is true.
But we must also ask an honest question: what about the millions of Nigerians already drowning in debt, unable to feed their families, struggling with rent, transport costs, school fees and rising food prices?
If someone owes ₦150,000, has not eaten properly for days, and is struggling to survive, how far can ₦50,000 really go?
The problem is not the grant itself. The problem is presenting survival as economic progress.
Nigerians do not want handouts forever. Nigerians want an economy that works.
They want stable electricity so businesses can grow.
They want affordable food.
They want security so farmers can return to their farms.
They want jobs that pay decent wages.
They want access to credit with reasonable terms.
They want a country where young people can dream beyond daily survival.
Recent reports also show that political activities continue across the country while many citizens are battling economic hardship and insecurity. At the same time, schoolchildren abducted in Oyo State remain a source of concern for many Nigerians, with families still hoping for their safe return.
This is why many people reacted strongly to the akara conversation. It was never really about akara.
It was about frustration.
It was about a growing feeling that ordinary Nigerians are being asked to endure more sacrifices while receiving less hope in return.
Nobody is saying small businesses are bad.
Nobody is saying people should be ashamed of humble beginnings.
What Nigerians are saying is simple:
Stop weaponising poverty.
Stop making hardship look normal.
Stop treating survival as success.
Build an economy where people sell akara because they choose to, not because they have no other option.
A nation cannot continue to measure progress by how creatively its citizens cope with suffering.
The true measure of progress is how many people no longer have to struggle just to survive.
That is the conversation Nigeria should be having.
Nigerians deserve more than survival. They deserve a government that creates opportunities, protects lives, grows businesses, and restores hope. Until then, conversations about akara, agbado and kuli-kuli will continue to remind us of a much bigger problem.

They're really lucky o. Imagine it was still indoors...or it was a larger capacity like 10kw/hr etc...The whole house would be ashes by now.

Glimpsetv: A Nigerian man has gone viral after getting "Chioma My Life" tattooed across his chest — and the internet has opinions.
The video, shared online shows the man lying down as a tattoo artist puts the finishing touches on the bold cursive declaration. No shame, no hesitation — just full commitment to Chioma.
Nigerians online, however, are not convinced this ends well. The comments section turned into a roast session fast — with people already writing the plot twist: "He go soon change am to Dragon."
Chioma, wherever you are — you better hold on tight. 😅
Why won't there be an olodo uprising...when we have professors and Drs. rigging elections for stack illiterates to rule them....then these so-called educated ones go back to the agberos to beg for small appointments...
That's why you hear crazy slogans like " education is a scam" ..."no he by to go school" etc.
"Nigerian society is no longer celebrating academic excellence. It’s not even Yahøø culture anymore; now we have a 'Peller culture.' This 'Olodo' uprising we are witnessing is terrible. It feels like we are trying so hard to accommodate ignorance so people won’t feel bad, and now… pic.twitter.com/jJoxPXEIgx
That's what happens when poverty has been weaponized.
Ekiti-kete have been turned to chickens and goats...na wa o.
Funny thing is despite thos video...nothing will happen...no one will be held accountable...they'll even say it's doctored.
TunezMediaTV: Visuals of Ekiti State APC throwing bread to hungry Nigerians from a Moving car as if they are chickens has left many on social media lamenting 😢🥲😢🥲
During an interview on Channels Television’s ‘The Morning Brief’ on Thursday, the Head of Knowledge Management and Learning for YIAGA Africa, Safiya Bichi, made a similar assertion.
Bichi remarked that the competitiveness of the Ekiti election would be heightened if there is a significant voter turnout on Saturday.
“Items such as rice, money, Indomie, and various food products are being distributed, along with promises made ahead of the election,” she stated.
Bichi also addressed the prevalent belief among the populace that ‘votes do not count.’
“There exists a common narrative in Nigeria, not limited to Ekiti, suggesting that your vote is inconsequential, and we are urging young individuals to recognize that their votes do matter.
“If votes were insignificant, there would be no one attempting to purchase them, and these are some of the messages we are using to reassure and motivate citizens to participate in our electoral process,” she added.
Her comments come as Ekiti gears up for its governorship election, which is set to take place on June 20, 2026.
