A second grave catches viewers' attention
Beside the actor's grave lies another burial site, finished with white tiles and stone decoration. Many fans who watched the video observed that the second grave appeared to be in a noticeably different condition compared to the actor's own, and several commenters questioned why it had not received the same level of attention during the renovation.
The contrast between the two graves prompted a wave of online discussion, with a number of followers expressing the view that the adjacent burial site, which some believed belonged to Ogogo's mother, deserved similar care and renovation.
Here is the Instagram video of where Ogogo was laid to rest:
