==== Theories relating to his death ====
===== Eventual exhumation =====
However, in 1922 - years after the secularisation of the nation - Abajomie's corpse was exhumed and examined by state morticians in order to decisively determine the cause of death. Thousands of Zoekerists protested against the exhumation, leading to minor riots and condemnation of the current administration. Three days later, the morticians concluded that Abajomie was strangled to death.
