Besides this law is coming from a state where the people will be willing to break the law and pay the fine.

Is this what soludo ought to be thinking about.

Government should not have the power to dictate how people choose to bury their dead. We keep giving government so much power, even to make moral and private decisions for us.

I've always been an advocate for the outright ban on the flamboyant burial traditions we have down South, so I consider this to be a good move in the right direction.

We waste too much money on the dead, only to later leave the relatives of the deceased in squalor. It's an outdated practice that should be abolished. Why waste millions burying a person when those resources can be put to better use?!

Funniest thing is I don't understand shit after I carefully read this stuff.

Aside for blocking road and public display of casket, I no understand anything.

Besides the 2months duration of mortuary is not feasible.
Like them get money Naim dey plan keep the corpse long?

Anyway Na interstate mortuary go gain am

dem for just make law mandating the mortuary to report any corpse in their possion longer than 2-months, so the stateGovernment could publicly burn them to ashes. That would serve as deterrents.

Also which one be levies owed to religious bodies and communities ? Why should those who lost their relative, still spend unnecessarily again ?

Anyways na people wey dey benefit from such allowed such to start. me no get strength for nonsense at all. if I do, and you say you no like am, shebi na deadBody, I go shift make you do as you please

Break the law, pay the fines, more revenue for the government. Win-win situation, however you look at it.

So of all the issues of insecurity, economic dearth, extortions and so on people are complaining in Anambra, what matters most to Prof. Soludo is burial/funeral check. He now wants to be a member of every umunna, check-mating how they conduct burial and funeral. Issorite.

Some of this stuff is more traditional.
You see that 2months idea Na their problem go come from.

Igbo people staying abroad that wants to witness the burial nko?
They will leave work because soludo gave them 2 months grin

Like I said the fine is something an average Anambra person is willing to pay to break the law

Besides how does soludo enforce his law, when. The families can connive with the law enforcement and bribe them.

Police go dey avoid to enforce this law.

It's very complex. Na soludo go come enforce am himself undecided

It is good we look into the excessive spending during burial,it is more of a competition than just burial making some person's and family to go borrowing just to show off.My prayer is that God Almighty should bless me let me kill cow for my mother on her 80th birthday, because if I no kill cow for her when she is alive I will not kill cow when she die.This have been my stand and I want to stand by it.You can't build a good house for your parents when they are alive, only to come and start building beautiful house when the person is dead and ready to be buried.

The law should be that families should be allowed to bury their loved ones in peace, regardless of the size of their pockets. Enough of village people taxing poor families exorbitant fees to mourn and bury their loved ones.

Burial is a Religious affair.
A law on Burial contravenes the Feedom of Religion enshrined in the constitution and UN Charter on Human Rights.

The law is Null and Void.
You can make law on use of mortuary, but not on Burial. Even a Professor of Economics should know that.

This is a very nice development.

Someone died at a hospital because of 20k deposit. cos nobody could afford it.
But here is millions of Naira being spend to bury the person.

Our people ehhh..

Burial can be used to generate money, what if you didn't spend a lot but still you didn't give the family of the dead anything. Allow the living to bury their dead how they wish.

A bunch of old men and women gathering to feast on food, drinks, meat, kolanuts and all other assorted chewables in the name of performing rites to give the deceased a safe passage in the spirit world. Something they could easily have done during the actual burial, but because they're thieves and gluttons, they fix a different date so they can burden you to feed their stupid stomachs.

If na the second burial wey I no go do go make my papa no waka well for the other side, make him get out! Once I put that man in the ground, I'm done with him.

Stop misinforming the public! A burial is not a religious affair. So those they cremate in crematoria have no religions?

That is, you're saying the death and burial of a loved one can be used as a revenue generating venture? This is easily the most shameful comment I've seen on this issue so far.

To me, it should be the choice and prerogative of individuals and families to decide how to bury their dead. A governor should not be given such power.
Do I support wasteful and expensive burials? No. But handing such power to a governor is much more dangerous.
I am an advocate for limited power
