The service of songs was held at the Fountain of Life Church in Ilupeju, Lagos, where attendees gathered to pay their last respects.
The atmosphere was filled with deep emotion as mourners reminisced about Onwenu’s contributions to the entertainment industry and her impact on Nigerian culture.
Following the service, the burial took place at the Ebony Vaults in Ikoyi.
The solemn ceremony marked the final goodbye to a woman who had touched many lives through her music, acting, and activism.
The legendary star was confirmed dead on Tuesday, July 30, after she slumped at a birthday party.
She had performed for the celebrant, Mrs. Stella Okoli of Emzor Pharmaceuticals, and was returning to her seat when the unfortunate incident occurred.
Despite efforts to save her, she was later pronounced dead that same night.
