At a Moshie woman's burial!
A Moshie Man invited his friends for his mother's burial. After lowering the body, the family put groundnuts, millet, meat etc, into the grave in line with tradition.
A Dagomba man asked why?
The Moshie man smiled & said, according to our tradition, the dead go on a long journey & need all the food items they can get".
The Dagomba man dropped Gh¢100 inside and said, "when the food finish, buy more".
The Manpurugu man dropped Gh¢500 and said, "add this, incase it's not enough".
The Moshie man smiled and brought out his cheque book & wrote a cheque of Gh¢2000 dropped it in the coffin & took the GH¢ 600 notes as a change, then said, "Nwanne, withdraw when you reach dia o...It is going to be a dangerous journey we don't know how many robbers are out there and afterall we are in a cashless economy na! Travel well o!"
