Popular clergyman, Prophet Jeremiah Fufeyin, has buried his late mother, Mama Asetu, in a gold-plated casket reportedly valued at ₦150 million.

Mama Asetu, who reportedly died at the age of 104, passed away in May 2025, with her burial ceremony held in December. A video from the funeral, which has since gone viral online, showed the immaculate gold-plated casket in which the centenarian was laid to rest.

The atmosphere at the ceremony was solemn as the late Mama Asetu was finally committed to the earth following the funeral service.

However, the burial has generated intense reactions online, with many Nigerians expressing shock, admiration, and skepticism over the reported cost of the casket.

While some viewed it as a fitting final honour for a woman who lived over a century, others questioned the necessity and authenticity of such an extravagant burial item.

Reacting online, some users doubted the reported value, arguing that solid gold of that size would cost far more than ₦150 million, while others criticised what they described as an excessive display of wealth.

A few commenters also raised concerns about security around the grave, suggesting the casket could attract unwanted attention.

As the video continues to circulate, the lavish burial remains a major talking point, sharply dividing public opinion. While supporters defend Prophet Jeremiah Fufeyin’s decision as a personal and symbolic tribute to his late mother, critics argue it reflects broader concerns about excess and values in modern-day funerals.
