In Yoruba culture, his corpse is not the type to keep when both of his parents are still living,” he explained. Assuming he died at a later age, we might have contemplated burying his remains and retrieving it later. We carried him away from there that night and buried him there.”
He also stated that he had planned to bury him on the land his son had purchased for him for the development.
