A Luyha Man invited his friends for his mother's burial.

After lowering the body, the family put a yam, rice, meat etc, into the grave in line with traditions.

A Kikuyu man asked why?

The Luhya man smiled & said, according to our tradition, the dead go on a long journey & need all the food items they can get".

A Luo man dropped 100,000k inside and said,

"When the food is finished, buy some more".

A Kisii man dropped 50,000k and said,

"Add this in case it's not enough".

The Kikuyu man smiled and brought out his cheque book & wrote a cheque of 200,000k, dropped it in the coffin & took the 150,000k notes as change, then said,

"withdraw when you reach dear ... It is going to be a dangerous journey we don't know how many robbers are out there and after all we are in a cashless economy!
