    Therefore, the definition of family depends on whether it is patrilineal or matrilineal.

  • Shut up Fante man 5 days ago

    In your Fanteland, children may be responsible for the funeral of a family member, but not in Asante ok. Even the place they want to bury him shouldn't be allowed. He should be buried at his hometown where his mother is from ...

    Look at how some families fight over funerals in Ghana? It's all about greed to possess his estate.

    When will Afrikans fight over the sick, orphans and homeless. Always fighting over the dead instead of progress and development. May common sense have mercy on this continent.

    Apostle Kwadwo Sarfo's body belongs to his family and not the children. All funeral arrangements must be planned and executed by the family.

  • Onipa Nua 6 days ago

    So who pays for the the funeral, the family or the children?

  • Tom 5 days ago

    Stop this nonsense. How much are you going to contribute towards the funeral?

    You only have to call the children to order behind the scenes and correct them.

    Why do Ashantis like fighting over funerals? This must stop. ...

    Here we go again. One down one to go. Daddy lumber is on my mind... What's actually the reasons Ghanaians fight over funerals?

  • Trokosi kwaseato 5 days ago

    Kwaseato. Dady Lumba's funeral fiasco is because of a disgruntled ex-Abusuapanin whose interest was to enrich himself out of the family grief. He is just a disgrace of a human being. Don't assign the behaviour of such a fool ...

    It's great to have the family take responsibility of when to bury their deceased member. Are you family and elders taking up the financial responsibility for the burial. Let's be factual and stop the unnecessary litigation ab ...
