A Kwahu man invited his friends for his mothers funeral. After lowering the coffin, they put yam, rice, meat etc, into the grave. A Hausa man asked why. The Kwahu man smiled & said, According to our tradition, the dead go on a long journey & need all the food items they can get. The Hausa man dropped GHS10,000 inside and said, When the food finish, buy more. A Fante man also added GHS5,000 and said, add this in case it is not enough. An Ashanti man who was present at the funeral simply smiled, and said I will also give GHS5,000. He brought out his cheque book and wrote a cheque of GHs20,000. He dropped it in the coffin and took the GHS15,000 as change, then said, Eno Serwaa! withdraw when you reach Asamando! It is going to be a dangerous journey, we don’t know how many robbers are out there and no one will be there to save you so just manage the cheque Damirifa Due! :D
