Big goat, cartons of beer – Man receives ‘mandatory funeral list’ from late landlord’s family
A Nigerian man simply known as Tolu has shared the outrageous letter he received from the family members of his landlord, who recently passed away.
In the letter contained a list of items the expected him to contribute for in respect of the deceased’s burial ceremony.
What was demanded of Tolu included the sum of N150,000, a goat, a bottle of Schnapps, 5 packs of beer, Palm wine, and other ludicrous items.
They family also told him that they know he won’t be able to attend the funeral taking place in the south-eastern region which is why they made the demands.
Sharing a screenshot, Tolu wrote; “Got this yesterday. I don’t understand Nigerians again o. I’ve not even live up to a year there. They’re Igbo, I’m Yoruba. I only met the man twice. Zero relationship with the family. I’ve been laughing intermittently since yesterday night.”
The letter reads;
Dear Sir,
I am writing to let you know that your Landlord, who passed away on 13th November 2023 will be buried later this month on 30th March 2024. I am well aware that you may not be able to attend the ceremony in the cast but we demand your contribution towards his burial.
