Nigerians on social media have reacted to the viral negative funeral brochure of a 66-year-old dead man in Abia state.

The deceased, who is identified as Gabriel Osonwa Kalu, left his family tongue-lashing his dead body in the funeral brochure shared at the burial ceremony  in Ohafia.

According to one of the man’s children, late Gabriel left no legacy for his children.

It is true nobody is truly perfect, but Ete Ossy, you left us with no single legacy as your children.

‘Indeed you were so good to outsiders but your own home was a total shamble. As a growing child, I regretted having you as a father, but today, look at me, standing to lay you down to rest.’

Though the man was alleged to be a good public man and sociable, but he was never a good family man according to his children.

‘Ete Ossy was sociable to outsiders and very intelligent,’ the children wrote in their tribute.’

The tribute going viral has since garnered mixed reactions from the public.
