AGN Raises Fund For Remi Abiola’s Burial

Members of the Actors' Guild of Nigeria (AGN), have concluded plans to raise funds for the burial of top actress, Remi Abiola.

Responding to a circular sent to the guild by the burial committee of the late actress, the leadership of AGN has made its intention to help them organise a befitting burial for their late member.

The deceased, who was one of the late MKO Abiola's wives, was a member of AGN, ANTP and NANTAP before she died.

According to a member of her burial committee, Hakeem Adekunle Rahman, efforts are currently being made for her corpse tobe brought to Nigeria.

He said that the late Remi's Christian wake-keep will be held at the Lagos State Television blue roof hall at a yet to be disclosed date, while other burial programmes will be released soon.

The actress, who had a child for the late MKO, died of lung cancer in a New York hospital two weeks ago.
