Drama Erupts at Burial of Gospel Singer Omije Ojumi as Families Clash at Graveside

Thursday’s final burial ceremony of Nigerian gospel singer Bunmi Adeoye Akinnanu, fondly known as Omije Ojumi, was marked by an unexpected drama.

The drama unfolded at her graveside following a confrontation between her estranged husband’s family and her children.

According to the reports online the estranged husband of the singer, who is reportedly based in the United States, had requested to speak with their children just by her graveside.

However, Omije Ojunmi family members declined the request stating that the graveside was not the place for him to demand to speak with the children who were mourning the passing of their mum.

This led to the commotion between one of the estranged husband’s sisters and the late gospel singer’s son after the aunt claimed he was a member of their family and that they loved him.

The distraught son of the deceased singer fired back shouting, “I am not. I am not!” before other family members held him and tried calming him down.
