At the event, Nnaji expressed gratitude to the guests. He also appreciated God for the success of the burial ceremony.
The family held a Thanksgiving service on Sunday at the St. John’s Methodist Church in Awkunanaw.
The burial ceremony — including condolences and other activities — continued on Wednesday.
Nnaji, in a statement, said his father died on March 12, 2024, at age 76.
