Nollywood actor, Yomi Fabiyi who doubles as Moji Olaiya‘s burial committee publicity secretary, has shared more details on the burial and repatriation of her body.
He said that a death certificate has been issued and given to Moji’s brother, Mr. Yinka Farinde by the Canadian government as well as necessary documents needed to bring the deceased and her child to Nigeria.
He said:
Whoever posted a wrong picture and invariably tagged Late Moji Olaiya’s name to it is just being mischevious.
We
promised to keep friends and family up to speed as event unfolds. We
are well aware that friends, fans and family are agog and wish to pay
their last respect.
To those reminding us about religious
sentiments, we wish to state that after her demise, it took up to
3-4days before the AUTOPSY was finally concluded and body released by
the government of Canada to the brother of the deceased and a friend of
the industry Mr Yinka Farinde for burial. Body now with relevant funeral
home.
The death certificate was issued yesterday and processing
the entire necessary documentations for her smooth journey to Nigeria
with the daughter had began in earnest. Two people from Canada had
volunteered to escort the body and child to Nigeria and we are eternally
grateful.
We do not wish to speculate. In few days we shall pass
information regarding the exact arrival date and other burial plans. And
we appeal against distracting comments, as the committee is trying as
much as possible to avoid joining issues with any one publicly and we
will not like when left with no other option than to respond. We ask for
respect for all parties.
The committee will like to thank all
members of the public especially her fans for your kind understanding
and emotion extended to her family and friends at this trying period.
Kind regards
Yomi Fabiyi
Publicity Secretary
