He also said the money raised was insufficient for the traditional rites.
He wrote, “Body Will Be Buried This Night By The Side Of River Niger. The Father Is There Right Now, He Has Non Say Because The Money We Raise For His Is Too Small To Conduct The Traditional Sacrifice And Bring Back Abigail Body To Akwa Ibom.
“I’m Too Sad. I Wish We Could Raise More! Burying Her At The River Bank This Night Is A Shame To Me.”
