The body of Abigail Frederick, the late makeup artiste, who died in boat mishap alongside Jnr Pope and three others, has been exhumed.

The body was exhumed yesterday, April 14.

It was exhumed in the afternoon and was taken to her home state, Akwa Ibom, where she will be laid to rest.

Recall that Abigai’s body was found on Thursday April 11 and buried at the bank of the river.

It was alleged that the villagers had insisted that her body be buried there as her family members failed to perform a sacrifice to appease the river goddess.
