Fashola Signs Cremation Bill In To Law by U09ce: 6:57pm On Jun 10, 2013
Lagos State Governor Mr. Babatunde Fashola, has signed the state’s Cremation Bill into law.

While signing the bill on Monday at Lagos House, Ikeja, the governor explained that the cremation law is voluntary, adding that its enactment showed how the concept of globalisation has taken its roots in the state.

Fashola said, “We commend members of the state House of Assembly for responding to global yearnings. Their zeal in passing the bill also shows that cremation is the best way to go.”

Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice, Mr. Ade Ipaye, said the law only provided for voluntary cremation.

He said, “It is voluntary in the sense that it allows for voluntary cremation, whereby a person may signify interest to be cremated when he dies or a deceased’s family members who must attain the age of 18 years can decide to have the corpse cremated.

Mr. Babatunde Fashola should first signify his interest to be cremated when he dies or one member of his family to encourage others to follow up. Are we now in India or are we short of land. this law is against Christianity . Charity begin at home YEYE LAW

This definitely will not go down with some people. For conservation of land, it seems a plus. But there're cultural and religious views which also cannot be put aside, its voluntary to be cremated. But as for me, i wont like it though
