Fresh facts emerged in Agulu, the Anambra
State country home of the late former Minister of Information, Prof. Dora
Akunyili last week on the reasons her kinsmen rejected the proposed August 28
burial date.
Sources told First
Weekly Magazine that the burial date clashed with the celebration of
Ofala Ceremony of the community. It will be recalled that Akunyili died of
cancer at a specialist hospital in India recently. It was exclusively learnt
that the immediate family members of the late woman are now planning to choose
a new date for the woman’s burial so that elders of the community can participate
actively in the burial ceremony of their illustrious daughter, whose death is
still a shock to many people in the country.
