Another community shouldn't have agreed, maybe the community was threatened and put under siege or they have paid for the sacrifice.
Let's pray it doesn't have a repercussion. The fear of the repetition of the Delta massacre on them is the reason they are not restricting them.
RIP
I just pity the girl, you fought as a living and still fighting as a dead.

Why where they in. Hurry to bury her as Christian

Shey everybody dey see them now?

Why were they in a haste to bury her? Besides, the funds realized from donations ( if well utilized) would have been enough to perform that useless rituals and also transport her corpse back to the village.

Sad. So sad

What are we even fighting for in this life. Why All these fight

This life is a school. We(our soul)are all here to learn from our mistakes so that we can advance to the next stage.Failure to learn will lead to a reincarnation without forwardness. Life one it's own is hell.No matter how wealthy you are, you will always cry someday as long as you remain in the flesh.Heaven has nothing to do with the flesh

May their souls rest in peace.

But more importantly may we not die avoidable deaths as such. It hurts to see that something as simple as a life jacket is what truncated the destinies of these people and brought so much pains to their families.

May the souls that departed rest in peace

Nice one....... truthfully said, culture and tradition are meant for the poor not the rich....the gods would have opposed the governor's directive nah.

The money donated would have been enough for the ritual and still take her remains home

But they chose to transport her parents down to Asaba to bury her beside the river(which burial abeg?)

After Mohbad's body was exhumed, it's now becoming normal in Nigeria

Sad

RIP

Hmmm

To add to it. We are all products of past and if we don't learn, we will remain a product of who we are now.

One good deed places you in an advantageous position of advancement. One ill deed, places you in a disadvantageous position of retrogression.

In as much you're wearing this physical cloak, then tears is inevitable.

While you're still living, amend your ways and seek peace so if you're opportune to return to this plain called earth; you shall be better than your former.

@op, may her soul continue to journey well.

THE POLICE MUST ARREST EVERY SINGLE PERSON IN THAT COMMUNITY THAT INSISTED ON HER BEING BURIED BY THE RIVER BANK BECAUSE OF A STUPID SO CALLED NONESENSE WATER GODDESS

Adieu.
My heartfelt condolences to their family.
Mammy water dey vex for Nigeria situation.

RIP girl.

RIP

Good one, we can't allow a useless culture to hold us back in this 21st century. It was the stup8d culture that made them take her to the herbalist rather than the hospital.

How can you bury someone without the family consent and against her people's culture.

All religion Whether Traditional, islam, Christian all uses fear and lack of understanding to cage human mind meanwhile God has already given us brain to navigate this world. He told us have dominion over everything but unfortunately man decided to subject himself under this elements.

It is the white that some how understand the power God gave to us (Not minding that some don't acknowledge him) that is why they continue making research to demystify all that we have regarded as mystery, always trying to give explanation to all human experiences.

For your information I am a Christian that is why I believe I am wonderfully made in His image and He has given me dominion, therefore I should not be a slave to some superstitious nonsense

RIP great mind

Life nkea self

The fact that she was buried without her family's consent just shows how stupid we are in this country

This death sha, it is inevitable

Why bury her without her family consent

I bid her farewell to the other side...

You need to be spiritually/mentally strong to go against some of these traditional beliefs.
