Why We Buried My Father 24Hours After Demise – Emma Ejeagha 

Posted on June 9, 2025
‎
‎The eldest son of the late veteran highlife musician, Mr. Emmanuel Ejeagha, has said that the family buried the “Gwo gwo ngwo” crooner, Mike Ejeagha, within 24 hours after his demise to keep his wish.
‎
‎Ejeagha Jnr disclosed this in a telephone interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Sunday in Enugu. He said his father made a wish and warned them not to embalm him after his death which they had fulfilled.
‎
‎”I contacted members of my family and informed them that my father made a wish that he should be laid to rest 24 hours after his death.”
‎
‎“I also summoned a meeting of my kindred and we discussed extensively and even Gov. Peter Mbah of Enugu State was informed about it and they all consented that whatever was his wish should be kept. There are a lot of consequential results if an elder said something and otherwise was done.”
