An Edo man invited friends for his mother’s burial, after lowering the coffin, they put yam, rice, meat etc, into the grave. An Hausa 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 Hausa man dropped N100,000 inside and said, “When the food finish, buy more”. The Yoruba man also dropped N50,000 and said, add this incase it’s not enough. The Igbo man smiled and brought out his cheque book & wrote a cheque of N200,000, dropped it in the coffin &took the N150,000 notes as change, then said, “Nwanne, withdraw when you reach dia o…it is going to be a dangerous journey we don’t know how many robbers are out there” Igbo kwenu!
