Songster, Onyeka Onwenu, will be buried in Lagos tomorrow,contrary to Igbo tradition in which,sons and daughters are buried at home in the East.
Onwenu was from Arondizougu,Ideato local government area,Imo state.
She died shortly after performing at the 80th birthday party of Emzor Pharmaceutical boss,Stella Okoli,in Lagos.
The Elegant Stallion,as she was nicknamed, must have suffered cardiac arrest,as she reportedly slumped after taking her seat, shortly after leaving the stage.
It’s not clear why Onyeka is being buried in Lagos, but sources say,it might be because her husband, Copperfield Fashion boss,Mr Ogunlende,is a Yoruba man,based in Lagos.
The service of songs ceremony of the late singer will be held tomorrow at the Fountain of life church, Ilupeju, Lagos by 10am.
The burial ceremony will be held at Ebony Vaults Ikoyi, Lagos on the same day.
