On this particular night, family and friends as well as colleagues and club members gathered in the compound of the deceased to observe a night of culture and service of songs for the departed.<\/p>\n<p>Around 8 pm, several groups and their representatives in and outside Amakor had all gathered for the wakes night and many came with their musical instruments and showcased their talents and skills.<\/p>\n<p>Umuaka Times also gathered that Amakor Age Grade, youths, Progressive Club and some members of People\u2019s Democratic Party PDP were also represented during the wakes night.<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps the greatest event of the night was the oghu dance which attracted a lot of attention and made serious waves especially during the time of obu oghu.<\/p>\n<p>DJ Lover Boy who was present during the night was also blasting his good music from his music machine when it was time for him to play.<\/p>\n<p>Youths who came for the night took time to drink and do their things in a special youthful way. They sang songs, danced, drank and also smoked.<\/p>\n<p>Umuaka Times can confirm that the heavy presence of mourners who came to give Chairman his last honour during the wakes night really meant that he was indeed a man of the people.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>260 ViewsThe final journey of the late Mr Cyriacus Ifeanychukwu Meremikwu to
