Good day nairalanders

There is this thing that I have come to observe in most parts of this nation,I don't know if it is just peculiar to us in Africa or if other African nations does the same, or is it hinged on religion, culture or just personal belief..you may wonder what it is,and this is it...

Why do most people in this nation always have intentions to come to burials to eat food, and also why do people give money at burials?

This is something I want us to look into,I have seen people who come to burials and stack away food,I have seen some given fat list of food items to buy and prepare in a burial,these so-called individuals most times don't raise a finger to help.

I think it is odd, why spend millions on a burial? and why give money to the mourning?

I just have come to observe that the whites have no time for such paparazzi, they do the 'thing' and that's all

What do you think?

I think its part of our culture
