A Nigerian clergyman, identified as Humble Okoro, has reportedly reburied late George Floyd, the African American who was killed in the month of May by a Minneapolis police officer after kneeling on his neck.
Pastor Okoro allegedly linked his (George Floyd) ancestral root to Mbaise Local Government Area in Imo State, where he was reburied.
According to reports, Pastor Okoro claimed that, he traced the ancestral root of George Floyd to Umuoffor kindred in Obokwu obibi Aboh Mbaise Imo State, and he felt it was right to rebury him with his ancestors.
Pastor Okoro was quoted saying,
“I have traced the ancestral root of George Obinna Floyd to Umuoffor kindred in Obokwu obibi Aboh Mbaise Imo State and I feel so happy now that we have reburied him alongside with his ancestors.”
