I don’t think you read the post before commenting, Soludo is doing wonderfully well in Anambra state so sh*t up if you don’t know what to say

Doing wonderfully well in which sectors? Please can you list his achievements other than jumping from community to community commissioning projects funded and executed by citizens of the state.

I cry when the church leaders comes with a both side of there mouth there is an existing law. That I can beat my chest that the church was the promoters of the law to accommodate the poor not to feel inferior.
Same church violate it and instead to apologize over it they come with pride to attack the governor.
Laws are not obey in convince, and people are here to defend it. Tomorrow when the poor goes on to do same even the church will goes against the person.
If we want to grow in this country will must take away politics and reality.
The governor is a Catholic I believe it should have chosen to keep quiet because it is there own but no he chose to stand by the truth.
My question are?
Is the church aware of the law?

When the law was pass did the church ever contributed

And lastly does it pass through State Assembly and public hearing.

If all this was done please the Bishop should apologize to the Governor and the people of Anambra

Oga, rest! Who made you the mouthpiece of the people? Who told you that everyone can afford to throw an expensive party in Anambra to bury their dead? Again, Soludo didn't enact that law; he just told people to obey an existing law.

Then, the archbishop mentioned that whenever laws don't work in Nigeria, it means it's unpopular. This is a blatant lie. Laws fail in Nigeria because government officials don't enforce them.

Even Soludo - who could afford to use all state resources to bury his father - obeyed the same law. What is wrong with Black people?! Nigerians are incorrigible and need strong hands to govern them.
It's not cast on stone that the burial must be expensive. In the same state, some towns use 1 day for burial while some use 2 days. Even some families still use 1 day in those towns that use 2 days. The law is there. But families apply it according to how they deem fit. If you want to throw owambe, no one cares. If you want low key, na for your pocket.

Misplaced priority, how does burial ceremonies affect the issues of governance in Anambra state ?

Your men are destroying people's means of livelihood along Oby okoli(Unizik junction road) in the name of enforcing one nonsense order of no street trading. note that any law without a human face is punishment
Re: Soludo, Archbishop Okeke In War Of Words Over Burial Of Priest’s Mother by Aghaclem67: 4:38pm On Jan 22
Any party thrown during funerals is not for the dead but for the living grin grin. Lots of people benefit from such lavish parties viz event planners, musicians, printers, and lots more. People who are empowered through burial activities will pay tax from the profits made and that will contribute to the IGR of the state. Stopping such activities means no revenue for the people and no tax at the end. Burials should not be pegged. It should be per one's choice and capacity. You do not tell a man who has money to spend how to spend it. Let him concentrate more on how to improve the economy and less on these distractions. There are a lot to be done in Anambra other than quarreling over expensive burial parties.
SmartPolician:
To be clear: the article mentioned that Governor Soludo didn't enact the law. The governor wanted them to abide by an existing law, which, if we are being honest, is very reasonable. I am just wondering the essence of spending a lot of money to bury people who are dead. Sometimes, with the way the so-called clergy behaves, you begin to wonder if they actually have the spirit of God in them.

These are the same people that usually give crazy terms and conditions to bereaved families before they can participate in funeral rites. Throwing a big party for dead people doesn't send them to heaven. The last time I checked: Catholics believe in praying for the dead so that God can accept their souls, not throwing a big party to impress people.

This is why it is best to not bat an eyelid when Nigerians are crying and wailing. Soludo is referencing a law passed under his predecessor and many people are telling him to keep quiet. Who in their right mind wouldn't be disgusted by the stupid display of haggardly put, quasi-opulent burial ceremony of Ebube Muonso's mother? Moderation is key. The bishop is being hypocritical and at the same time idiotic in his reply. Isn't it the same Catholic church that stated that from death to date of burial must not go beyond 2 months and constantly break the law when a rich family is involved? Ever wonder why religious leaders are losing their shine? From the Pope to the bishops down to the pastors, people are beginning to call their bullshit in public.

The governor is right. You don't lavishly do burial at the expense of your congregation. The government need to make laws to tame the church in this regard.

We the residents of Anambra know his values, free and fair election, Soludo is a winner.
If other past governors of Anambra State perform at the level Soludo performs. Many residents will never relocate.

They will tell you how much to donate to church, to their personal pocket, pet project etc before they will Bury your deceased. What my family paid to these crooks is still paining me.
Even during the burial mass, the man was still gloating on how we should spend to bury our dead. That it was merited. Shock was an understatement. It remain small, they would have taxed chairs and tables.
