You put a piece of white cloth round the body and dispose it immediately. Every Kenyan should follow that culture, though it takes time The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information ...

to adopt. Since your neighbour practises that very good culture, you should adopt it slowly. You do not need to buy shoes, watch and other expensive ornaments for a dead body. He or she does not need them at all.
