Extravagant Spending On Funerals Contravenes Ghanaian Customs - Obiri Yeboah Website
A lecturer in sociology, Dr Obiri Yeboah says the increasing trend in extravagant spending on funerals contravene Ghanaian customs. He therefore supports moves by certain traditional authorities in parts of the country to regulate certain aspects of funeral ceremonies. Dr Obiri Yeboah was commenting on reports suggesting that in some major cities in the county such as Kumasi, large billboards have been put up advertising final funeral rites of some personalities. Dr. Obiri Yeboah who is also the dean of the School of Business at the Accra Polytechnic says it makes little economic sense for families to spend huge sums of money on the funerals of their deceased only for them to turn round soliciting for funds to clear debts accrued as a result of the frivolous spending.
