And at some point, there was talk of Governor Fayose of Ekiti state offering to sponsor the burial seeing that Moji was from Ekiti state.

This was revealed by Kayode Salako, husband of actress Foluke Daramola Salako.

Also, Foluke Daramola herself has corroborated her husband’s claims revealing that the burial committee has not received any favorable news from Governor Fayose or the Ekiti state government.
