How can you travel from overseas to your village to bury your parents, but you did not travel from abroad to visit them when they were sick? – Reno Omokri slams Nigerians in diaspora

Reno Omokri has criticized Nigerians in the diaspora who return home to host elaborate funerals for their parents but fail to visit them while they were alive.

In an Instagram post, Reno expressed that family bonds should be strengthened by life, not by death.

He shared this in a post on Instagram. he wrote; ”How can you travel from overseas to your village to bury your parents, but you did not travel from abroad to visit them when they were sick? If you had visited them, they may not have died. You never sewed aso ebi to celebrate their birthday. Now you are spending $150 per aso ebi to commemorate their death? Let life unite you with your family instead of death. Remember, you teach your children how to treat you in your old age by how you treat your parents in theirs. A befitting life is better than a befitting burial.”
