Reggae Legend, Ras Kimono Finally Laid To Rest
Reggae Legend Ras Kimono’s final burial rites have
commenced as the body left the TOS Funeral Home where it has been preserved
since his June 10, 2018 death.
Family, friends and associates lined with convoy
of vehicles heading to Magodo — the late
musician’s place of residence — as the hearse bearing his remains was driven
out of the lush environment where the TOS Funeral Home is.
The dreadlocked musician had reportedly slumped at
the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos, while waiting to board a
flight to the United States, on the night of Saturday, June 9.
According to sources close to him, Kimono was
immediately rushed to an unnamed hospital in Ikeja, Lagos, and then taken to
another hospital on the Island, where he later died on Sunday morning.
Dispelling certain speculations that Kimono might
have been battling a serious ailment resulting in his demise, his manager,
Daddy Faizer, had said that the singer underwent a medical test about three
weeks prior and that his doctors had said he was in good shape
Kimono’s remains made the onward journey to his
Onicha Olona ancestral home in the Aniocha North Local Government Area of Delta
State this morning.
