Coronavirus outbreak: Ghana and dancing pallbearers

This is how some families bid adieu to their loved ones in Ghana pallbearers in black suits and sunglasses dancing to techno tracks.

Death calls for a celebration of life and these dancing crews leave no move behind. The performance is a part of the funeral ceremony, it is carried out on the request of the family.

The tradition dates back to middle ages but the dancing pallbearers have found a new meaning recently. They have become the symbol of death and fodder for meme.
