Renowned highlife legend, Daasebere Gyamenah, who died on
Friday July 29 while on admission at the Korle Bu Teaching hospital in Accra,
will be buried on October 14.
The one week celebration which took place at the forecourt
of the Omahene palace in Koforidua on Friday was held symbolically after more
than a week of the musician’s
death.
Reports indicate that Daasebre Gyamenah will be given an
Islamic burial. According to the report, the family has decided to release the
body to the Muslim community for burial as before his demise he was a
practicing Muslim.
Although he was not a Muslim by birth, he became a convert
to Islam when he attained adulthood.
His remains will be laid in state before the burial.
Personalities like, Akosua Agyapong, Kojo Antwi and a host
of others were present at the one week celebration of the demised legend.
