Burying the dead in a residential area is an archaic and primitive method of burial- OAP Dotun

Burying the dead in a residential area is an archaic and primitive method of burial- OAP Dotun

Media personality,  Dotun has condemned the practice of burying deceased individuals within residential buildings, labeling it “archaic and primitive.”

 

Dotun made his stance known amid an ongoing family dispute surrounding the burial of the late gospel singer, Toluwanisings. The singer's widow, Elizabeth, is reportedly at loggerheads with her in-laws over his final resting place. While she insists on a cemetery burial, the late singer’s paternal family strongly demands that he be buried inside the house he built before his demise.

 

The situation has triggered a wider debate among Nigerians on social media. While some support the family’s traditional stance, others argue that burying a body on the property significantly depreciates the economic value of the house and makes it unlivable for future tenants or buyers. Joining the faction against the family's wishes, Dotun publicly knocked the tradition, maintaining that residential homes should not double as burial grounds in modern times.

    His father and mother have every right to dictate where he should be buried. If a man loses his wife, he won't even bother about it, he knows she has a family, but women, no. There are issues a father or mother can call the shots, this is one of such issues. Men, you see how it's mostly women against the father, smell the coffee. You built a house, died, your wife doesn't want you to buried, women are saying it's trauma 😂😂😂, Na lie Can you see that all we have been saying about women are true, that gender na....... 🤣🤣. If you don't gerrit, forget it I don't think the father or family have any motive.

    TYPHOID CURE Typhoid affects sleep a lot. Eat garlic, or you can get pineapple peels, lemon grass, and lime. Meet aboki for pineapple peels, you can buy one small pineapple because some of them won't want to give you for free. Lemon grass can be gotten from the market, just ask people around in the market. You will thank me for telling you this. Come back here and testify here.

    MIGRAINE SOLUTION If you have migraine, a pain in one side of your head. It even affects your sleep and you don't sleep well, you even feel head pain when using your phone and chest pain. Buy grape fruit, like 12 of it (the big type that is like orange) but it's bigger than orange. Squeeze the grape into hot water and put the grape itself inside the pot too, add more water and drink like 2 hours before you go to bed and maybe during the day. Eat your dinner before 7pm and drink it after dinner. Drink it for like 20 days or more. Stop going to the hospital wasting money, do what I have said. You will thank me for telling you this.
