Towncrier.ng  reporter gathered that since December 12th, 2017 when he died at Kesley Harrison’s Hospital no. 11 Emenike Street Mile One Diobu his burial had not been conducted the reason may not be unconnected with the notification by Late prince Nnamdi Wokekoro’s Lawyer who informed his family that he left a written Will in which he authorized how he would be buried anytime he passed on. With this information, the early burial arrangement made by the Wokekoro family was stalled until further notice.

 

It should be recalled that the late Port Harcourt big Boy-Prince Nnamdi Wokekoro was not known to have lived with any woman as his wife neither did he publicly displayed any child as his child or children known by friends and well-wishers.
