The funeral billed for Saturday, January 23, 2016 is expected to commence on Friday, January 22 and governors of the South East, political class, traditional rulers, religious, traditional leaders, and captains of industry are equally to grace the occasion.

Throwing more lights on the plans at his country-home Alor, Idemili South local government area at the weekend, Senator Ngige said that the federal government delegation would be led by the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, SGF, Babachir David Lawal, while governor of Anambra State, Chief Willie Obiano would be the major host.
