An Edo Man invited his friends for his mothers burial. After lowering the coffin, the family put yam, rice, meat etc, into the grave in line with tradition. A man asked why? The Edo man smiled &said, according to our tradition, the dead go on a long journey & need all the food items they can get. The man dropped N100,000 inside and said, when the food finish, buy more. Another man dropped N50,000 and said, add this incase its not enough. Akpos smiled and brought out his cheque book & wrote a cheque of N200,000, dropped it in the coffin & took the N150,000 notes as a change, then said, Nwanne, withdraw when you reach dia o...It is going to be a dangerous journey we dont know how many robbers are out there and afterall we are in a cashless economy na! Travel well o!
