Cremation Should Be Introduced In Nigeria. by OdyOdy(m): 8:37pm On Apr 17, 2010
Considering the number of abandoned lands and the growing population of the country, i think cremation should be introduced as part of our culture. We can't keep giving our lands to the dead and cry for lands to raise buildings. Its even economical compared to our normal burial process. What do your think?

Cremation will interfere with natural circulation of mineral matter and also aid in polluting the environment by realsing harmful gases and dioxins into the atmosphere. E

The dead body should be allowed to decompose and recircled the minerals recycled. The dead of a man is no better than the dead body of dog.

Cremation causes pollution yes! But not 2 be compared to d familiar pollution we get and are used to 4rm smokey. Its effect is little and insignificant!
No one wil want to erect a structure over someone else's dead body. Its all economics. We need to fink about the future here. And if its not our culture we can borrow it. I speak dis cos i hear dat yaba cemetry wil soon be exhausted. What a large expanse of land now lies fallow for eternity. Guys we have to see reasons.
