The final burial rites of the late Ooni of Ife, Oba Okunade
Sijuwade, Olubuse II, was performed on Friday, but his wives, children and
family members were unable to pay their last respects as they were barred from
the programme.
Some other people who had expected to see the body of the
monarch lie in state were also disappointed as his remains were neither brought
out for people to see nor was any casket displayed during the burial service.
