U made Nigeria proud

I personally think the long burial arrangement is not necessary, carrying her up and down.

They would have cut down this proposed here and there carrying and just lay the woman of integrity to rest.

Rest in peace Dora, a woman of integrity

Again!
I thought she died and was buried last year.
We cried a lot then.

Continue resting in the Lord ma'am

especially the abuja own. They should have just taken her corpse from Enugu to Agulu for the burial and do other programmes without the corpse being there.
