"Please when your wife pass away, did you sit with family and discussed the date with them or the people who are not part of the family to set the Date. Please delete this before team legal wife sees this, we respect you so much thanks."

Kwame Nsah stated:

"Eddie ofain3, even in the Ga tradition when your husband passes away the family needs to come to the wife’s family with a drink to come tell of his death so basically inviting her(the wife) and her family to the funeral. I’m swiftly going to whisk you away from this conversation because I just turned off your mic, light and everything 😂 leave it be🙏🏽."

"Massa, please protect your brand and stay out of this. Do your research before you come out."

nana_akua_gh stated:

"She needs to be part of the decision makers, but was not allowed to … think before you spit."

shequeen_sparkling_star stated:

"If you dont know about culture, go home and ask your elders Sir cos you wont find the answers here. First ask yourself why they presented drinks to her, informed her of husband demise and invited her for the one week celebration which we all saw on the internet. That’s culture and that’s how it’s done. Same is done during funeral and that’s why the elders in the family are with her cos the right things weren’t done due to some people’s greed and eagerness to throw DL away."

_styledbyceci stated:

"The comments did not go his way 😂😂😂😂post this on TikTok and they would explain it to you more😂😂😂sometimes it’s better not to say anything oo😂😂😂."
