A Nigerian lady caused a stir on social media after sharing a video detailing all the food she ate at late actor Alexx Ekubo’s funeral, which was held in Arochukwu, Abia state, on Thursday, June 18.
In a video making the rounds on social media, the young lady began by responding to critics of guests who attended the actor’s funeral and ate a meal. She asked such people not to eat at any funeral if they are given food to eat.
‘’If it gets to your turn and you attend a funeral and you’re offered food, throw it away, okay?” she told critics
She stated that she had small chops, goat meat pepper soup, and white rice with Chinese sauce. She said she also relished Singapore noodles at the funeral, as well as African salad popularly called Abacha. She said the last meal she had was boiled corn and peas.
According to the lady, after the meal, everyone at the reception danced.
‘’We danced! We celebrated a good man who lived a fulfilled life at 40. We celebrated a man who loved to live and live for others. I don’t understand people saying Why did they celebrate him? Why did they throw a lavish burial? Why did you guys eat at the funeral? bla bla blah…
A lot of people travelled for hours. People flew for this funeral. Were they supposed to come and go back hungry? No! The least you can do for your guest is to serve them food. You wouldn’t gather people in this number, and you will not give them food. Nobody is saying that when you eat it is going to disrespect the de@d. No! The de@d is de@d and gone. The least you can do is to make the best out of his memory, live for him because he wanted to live. People who know Alexx know he was the life of the party, and this is what he would have wanted. People to come and celebrate the good life that he had lived’. She said
