When I Die, Do Not Spend Money For My Burial- Pastor Ighodalo

“When I die, the money you want to spend for my burial, use it to benefit the
people who have no benefit in life. The dead is dead, and dead for good. Let him
face Jesus. Keep my funeral simple, make it easy. Use the money you want to
lavish on me to pay school fees for children who need it. In fact, I will even
buy my own coffin. Don’t buy Coca Cola for anybody, don’t. I am serious about
it. Let’s do things in an efficient way. What you want to spend for me, don’t
wait until I die, give me the money now and let me enjoy now. Don’t go and
borrow money to do my burial. I don’t need it. I will be dead then, use the
money on those still alive. I can’t understand why Nigerians will borrow money
to celebrate burial; why they will sew clothes and drink champagne to celebrate
burial. I can’t just get it out of my system. Why do Nigerians close the street
to celebrate a dead man. A dead man is dead. Bury him and move on,” – Pastor
Ituah Ighodalo of Trinity Church, to his congregation.

Hmmmm *coughs* until then…………..
