The state commissioner of police, Olatunji Disu, is leading the security personnel at the venue.
Clerics, traditional rulers from Omoeke (Wigwe’s hometown), and monarchs from Isiokpo were already seated.
Security has been increased in Isiokpo and the surrounding areas.
Family members and friends attended a Christian wake held in honor of the deceased in the community on Friday.
