Although, the dead doesn't have any feelings and doesn't know anything going on around the environment. However, that casket no get level sha.

He would have opened up to his inlaws and seek for support from them, I'm sure they too would have made some monetary contributions to get something befitting.

All those condemning the action of the family will do worse and will never accept such casket be used to bury their own mother.

Make we talk true. The man try but I no bam

i served in vandeikya in 2015 and it was not funny at all virtually any direction you turn to nah coffin shop. infact if you learn furniture work without you knowing how to make coffin your apprenticeship is just a waste of time and hardly would a week pass without you seeing one wake keep program or the other whether old or young!

the son-in-law dont love the family before

Beremx:
The in-law should buy a royal casket for the family. The person to be buried deserves the same treatment as Queen Elizabeth. 😏😏😏

...if they do not have money to buy a royal coffin nko. Would they have to steal money to buy it,. that is what they can afford to buy they cannot kill themselves

Will an expensive cofifn bring the person back to life ... that is what they can afford.. they cannot kill themselve

That is why I like the Muslim burial...it's simple and cheap the way they do their burial

It is not beautiful? If that's the design he could afford no be ground e dey go? Something termites will still destroy!

Mrfixitt:
Lol. Benue people shaa

Naturally I no de friend first daughter not to talk of marrying them

some people and nonsense...

obinna58:
Honestly e look somehow sha
If they bury am with this kind coffin I’m seeing so, his ancestors fit deny am kpatakpata

Na bamboo them use Bury the same ancestors. So what are you on about?

Make them help am now! na wa o

I hope the man didn't vote for APC?

Fut9ure:
Benue people
One set of annoying people

Repeating one same Apc that is tormenting them with herdsmen and bandit


Sorry if there is any Benue person on nairaland

I think Benue people are sick

I feel it's sickening to refer to an entire state and tribe as sick. But data is cheap, so it's fine.

The politics of Benue is a peculiar one. Independent candidacy is not permitted under the Nigerian law and the Rev fr is the people's choice and must contest under a platform to which, LP and PDP were taken. APC won cos of Alia and not because the people support APC full chested

silvoclaira:
The whites aint gat time for all these balderdash we see happening in some African places. Inlaw that inlaw this trash...

...and you think the whites don't do more senseless shït. Lmfao

As if it will not decay

logicalhumour:

...and you think the whites don't do more senseless shït. Lmfao

We both know blacks do more sensekess traditional, culture sh.it than the white all because you married a woman?

Trash

Truly if they bury the in-law inside this Tinubu coffin, the in-law will not make heaven.

No one is talking about the dead's journey to the great beyond.? After death, its judgment. Where do you want to spend eternity brother?

"THRASH" that's unfortunate. Acting rich does not make a man rich. Claiming standards in cultural or traditional burial rites is absolutely strange and a fake life. At what point did burying people inside a coffin become an African traditional burial rite? HOW MANY ANCESTORS WERE BURIED IN A COFFIN? It's funny but if the ancient ancestors were buried without coffins, whosoever is buried inside this one may receive a chieftancy title on arrival. As for modern ancestors, I wonder when they started calling the shots and setting the standards in the great beyond. If however, they were able to change the standards the original ancestors set for the Tiv people, then thus man has every right to stick to his decision of giving what he can afford. After all, even the last retired pope was buried in what looks like this one.

Certainly, the Tiv customs have a template which the man followed but such a public display is unfortunate. As for you, wey know standards, feel free to start a bonanza of caskets. In the village the man mentioned, such a casket is not an abnormality. Claiming levels during burials is one unfortunate thing Africans need deliverance from.

Babapyro:

No white person will demean themselves by burying a family in this thrash,stop saying what you don't know,there are standards all around the world

God1000:
This isn't newsworthy, there are other things happening in Benue right now

Like?

Useless people, as if the dead woman will come back to life if buried in gold casket.
I don't know when Tiv people will do away with this useless tradition.
Reason i took woman far from there.

Very useless people with useless traditions.
The only good thing in Benue is food.

They should go to court instead of causing war... :-

Those family members are so lunatic and men pleasers. The dead is already gone, who cares what he was buried with. They should just wrap him up with clothes and do the needful please

Chaii

Na em mama? Ok make them keep the corpse, when the under taker get time make them do coffin in the shape of a big dick for her so she would be happy in the after life

The coffin is the last respect paid to the deceased. I don’t think the son in-law will allow his mother to be buried in this type of coffin. Yes it’s something to be put in the ground but what is worth doing is worth doing fine.

What the son-in-law would’ve done is to provide the family with the equivalent funds and allow the family to either add money to do the needful.

When the deceased was suffering and only needed pocket money to cope, they never asked the inlaws to provide, they re crying fouls because they just want to exploit the inlaws.

They should buy their own coffin if they hate it, but the coffin hash, looks like a local canoe.

Coffins are quite expensive, if he has the funds he should buy, but I detest the attitude Christians have towards their dead, they only spend money when its time for burial, not because they care about the deceased but because they are concerned about their so called status.

Its a christian burial, he must buy expensive coffin to impress his inlaws and his pastor.

. So because he has to impress his in-laws so he must go and steal. money or go into criminal activities inorder to buy an expensive cofifn when he does not actually have money to buy an expensive coffin .. that is why they are many families still oweing debts till now.and the creditor disturbing or threatening them to pay back the money they borrowed them for the expensive burial ....there are situations in a family because of the pressure of doing an expensive burial the first son of the family will have to go into illegal activities...fraud, kidnapping, crime, inorder to get money to bury his father or mother in an expensive burial way m .when he does not actually have money to bury them expensively

You speak as if you be not witnessed a Nigerian burial from the south, it's all about money and prestige, the corpse doesn't matter.

..I know that Southerners and Christians like to organize expensive burials ....so if the person or family does not have money to do an expensive burial..then what do you want him or the family to do ?... that is my question
