    9. Well, in Edo state where i come from, parents don't bury their children. It's the other way round. So if a parent loses his child, they won't attend the burial cuz it's a taboo according to tradition. So I am guessing that's the case here. For the husband, me no know that one.

  48. @Kween and Ijeoma Okafor......in yoruba land parents do not attend the funeralof their children because the children are supposed to bury their parents and not the other way round. As per the husband not attending, there might congent reason, perhaps he cannot handle the sight of lowering the coffin into the grave. Not everyone has the strength to say this sort of good bye, trsut me. Anyways, may her soul and the souls of the fatihful departed rest in peace. Amen. Eternal rest grant unto her oh Lord and let perpetual light shine upon her. amen.

  51. it is forbbiden in d west 4 a parent to attend d burial of a child *RIP taiwo*

    ReplyDelete
  52. Yoruba custom and tradition do not allow parents witness actual burial of a child. It' s a taboo for parents to be able to point at exact grave of a child. Actually, elders and those that are holder in age to the deceased are not encouraged to witness graveside ceremonies of younger ones. Yoruba fervently pray , 'a ni mo saare omo wa, amin. ' Now , her husband may also use same custom to justify his absence. Her twin and son will find God's meaning in all this. May His peace rest on all she left behind, amen.

    ReplyDelete
  53. Am i seeing wrong or did they just pour concrete on the coffin? That is not acceptable knowing the dead ones are only sleeping. They could have put a slab which is the custom everywhere, to my knowlege,but covering with concrete is just D*** final!

  54. RIP Taiwo... for those asking why her parents did not attend, well in Yoruba land its a taboo for parents to be seen at their children burial. it should be the other way round, children are meant to see their parents laid to rest.

    ReplyDelete
  60. linda please post my comment o... the parents did not attend because its Yoruba tradition not to let the parents of a young person attend the burial... usually to help reduce the psychological impact of the grief of such parents upon seeing the burial place of their young one, especially when it is everyone's hope that their child succeeds them, not the other way around... the husband is probably also still devastated by the loss, since he was probably the first one to realize she had passed on (remember she died in her sleep) adieu Taiwo, may God himself look after the little boy that you have left behind. RIP.

  61. In Yoruba culture, parents do not attend the burial of their children, as it is believed that a child should bury their parents and not the other way round. I don't understand why her husband wasn't in attendance though. Beats me!

    ReplyDelete
  62. Rosie Said.......For those of you asking why her parents did not attend? Answer......It is a taboo in Youruba culture for a parent to bury his/her child,hence they do not participate in the funeral or are not supposed to see the corpse of a dead child. For the husband's absence,that i do not have an answer to.

    ReplyDelete
  63. It is understandable that her parents were not there. In Nigerian culture, parents do not bury their children. As for her husband not being there, that is not normal. I also noticed that on the obituary flier, they did not include survived by husband.

  64. Her parent did not attend because the Yoruba culture doesn't permit parents to bury their children. As regards the hubby, I heard that he is a married man and they had personal issues.

  74. In Yoruba culture, parents do not bury their children. Some may attend the church or mosques service but it is considered an abomination to actually go to the gravesite. A prayer that is said regularly for parents is "e ni mo saare omo" meaning that you will never bury a child.

    Secondly, if Taiwo was married, it would have been said so obviously, she was not married (at the time she passed on).

    May her soul rest in peace.

    ReplyDelete
  75. The Yorubas are forbidden by culture not to see their children been buried or know where they are even buried. Infact other family members older than the deceased will hardly attend the burial. As for the husband, am sure he was too pained to witness such a predicament. God help us all.

    ReplyDelete
  76. In some african customs, it's believed to be a taboo for parents to bury their children cos it's believed to be a natural law of nature for children to outlive their parents not the other way round. That's probably why her parents are not there.

    ReplyDelete
  77. Her parents cannot attend,i think in the yoruba cultural context,it is not common place for the parents to see their dead offspring,it is like you are burying your future right in your present, so the older folks will not attend or wine ,dine in the funeral of a younger person than they are but the truth be told as long as we do not choose when we come into this sinful world,we also do not determine when we leave it so please surrender your life to jesusssssssssssssssssssss oooooooooooo and you will enjoy life unending.
