hold back his emotions at the burial rites for his younger brother, Meni
Innocent Jonathan, who died 20 November, as he burst into tears.

Part of the rites was the Service of Songs held for Meni at the Dame
Patience Jonathan Square, Otuoke today. It attracted notable government
officials, including Senate President David Mark. Representatives of
Nollywood were there too. But a notable absentee was vice-president
Namadi Sambo, who kept away to prepare for the wedding of his two
daughters in Kaduna Saturday.
