*Strange things we do in Africa,Nigeria and Igbo land in the name of ...........I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO CALL IT



*1. We care more for the dead than we do for the living!*

*2. We spend more to bury a person than we do to save their life.*

*3. We will not travel to go see a sick relative but will travel to bury him /her*

*4. People will rarely respect you while alive but will want to "pay their last respects" to your casket.*

*5. A person may NEVER receive fowl in their entire life but they will get lots goats and cows in their funerals

*6. We will spend a night at a neighbour's funeral and it will be our first time to see the inside of their house!*

*7. No one gives a damn to know your village until you die and they will all fill car after car to "escort" your corpse*

*8. We will take the dead to the mosque/temple/church knowing fully well they had nothing to do with worship while alive.*

*9. We might not have granite tops in our kitchens but use the granite in the graveyard!*

*10. An entire village might not have a single house with cement floors but the only place with cement will be a graveyard!*

*It is proposed we have "Cultural ReformS". We have a culture of "hypocrisy"

... a culture that is "Pro-death" and NOT "Pro-life!"*

*We need to value life BEFORE death.*

*Best person ever who came to my heart left with scars but will never forget you...
