Photos from late Prof. Dora Akunyili's burial

I screen grabbed this from my TV so please pardon the quality. I'm sure official photos will be released tomorrow. Prof. Dora Akunyili was buried today August 28th at her husband's compound in Agulu, Anambra state. Dignitaries at the burial included Gen. Yakubu Gowon, Information Minister Labaran Maku, Deputy Speaker of House of Reps, Bauchi State governor Isa Yuguda, Onyeka Onwenu and many others. See more photos after the cut...
