Lagos Burial For Henrietta Kosoko Cancelled As Her Family Hijacks Plans by AmicableEd(op): 7:10am On Jun 10, 2016

The Funeral service for late Henrietta Emumeakpor-Kosoko slated for Regina Mundi,Mushin,Lagos has been cancelled.Not only that, her remains will also not be interred at Atan Cemetery,Yaba,Lagos as earlier released by the burial committee.

According to one of the members of the committee who spoke to reporters, the reason for the cancellation of the Lagos funeral arrangement was not unconnected with the fact that the Henrietta’s family from Delta state insisted that their daughter must not be buried outside.

The family of the late actress does not recognize Jide Kosoko as her husband, hence their decision to take charge of her funeral.

‘Henrietta is Urhobo woman from Delta state, where they cherish their culture. Jide Kosoko didn’t go to her family house in Delta to pay her dowry,’ the source said.

“It’s true that Henrietta’s remains will no longer be buried in Lagos. Her siblings and other members of her family have insisted they’re not burying her in Lagos as earlier planned by Jide Kosoko.

“I learnt the issue didn’t go down well with Jide Kosoko but there’s nothing he could do to resist that.”

he is lucky he was'nt asked to marry her corpse.

some parts of edo/delta state insist on such if a woman dies in her 'husband's' house before paying her dowry and all the marriage rites are done

Funny how some public figure behave. how would he marry an urhobo woman without going to pay her bride price. He is a thief and should be tried in the traditional way.

firstly he should pay the bride price of the dead woman.
secondly he should conduct an engagement ceremony for the dead woman.
thirdly, he should be made to marry the dead woman before conducting the burial.
