A Nigerian Twitter user has taken to the microblogging site to narrate how a church allegedly refused to bury a dead man who had while alive, pledged the sum of 1 million Naira.
He revealed that the incident involves a Catholic church in his hometown which insisted that the money which was pledged by the dead man be redeemed by his family before they can bury him.
