The remains of of reggae star Majekodunmi Fasheke aka Majek Fashek was today laid to rest in New York, USA.

The event was attended by only members of the artistes immediate family.

Majek who died some weeks back from cancer related illness had been sick for a while leading to his being flown to London and later to America.

Attempts by some of his friends to fly his body back to Nigeria for burial could not materialise due to funds compounded by the COVID-19 pandemic travel restrictions.

Known as the rainmaker , Majek Fashek was credited with several hits like SEND DOWN THE RAIN , HOLY SPIRIT, I & I EXPERIENCE, MOTHER etc.
