FLOGGING A DEAD MAN

Beating a dead man, just yestaday I was opportune to witness a culture of the people of Emeyal in Ogbia Bayelsa State of Nigeria, A man drank a bottle of paraforce, (a chemical use in spraying of grass) and died, while I follow them to the cementry I witnessed something I couldn't have believed if I was being told, they brought out the Corps and started beating the dead man as if it was alive, I ask them why they were doing what they are doing, they said the man is a witchcraft, and that anyone that killed him/her self, must be flogged, what an amazing experience , people wasting there energy and time flogging a dead, what a waste.
