In entertainment, the body of the late Nigerian reggae legend, Ras Kimono will this Saturday be laid to rest in his hometown Onicha Olona in Aniocha north local government area of Delta state, south-south Nigeria.

Ras Kimono

The burial rites began with a night of tribute held at the Copyright Society of Nigeria (COSON) house in Ikeja in Lagos state.

The night which was attended by the likes of Dede Mabiaku, Clarion Chukwura, Faze, Essence, family members, close friends, colleagues as well as the COSON family, was turned into a mini-concert as the guests were entertained by Ras Kimono's daughter, Oge who is also a reggae artiste, as she took the guests down memory lane with an electrifying performance of under pressure by the late legend.

Also on the stage was Majek Fashek and Oritz Williki who performed some of kimono's hit to the delight of all.

Tears however flowed freely as the Rasta community in Lagos and other artistes took turns to pay tributes and pray for him during the lying in state.

Meanwhile, the body of the late legend is now in delta state where there was a procession in the state capital Asaba by the Rasta community after a brief lying in state.

There is a final wake and lying in state at his compound on Friday night ahead of the interment on Saturday
