The late governor Aganga gets a 2nd strike

                                         

It was a shocker when I heard the news of the Associated Airline plane crash on the 3rd of October 2013 in Lagos, Nigeria. I was even more shocked when I heard who the passengers of the plane were. Among the passengers were the family members of the Late governor of Ondo state who were on their way to Akure for the Governor's burial..apparently with the Governor's corpse.

A chartered aircraft conveying the body of the former Governor of Ondo State, Olusegun Agagu this morning crashed shortly after take-off at Murtala Muhammed Airport in Lagos.

Sources on ground said one of his sons was involved in the crash alongside the commissioner of tourism in Ondo State who had been detailed to accompany the corpse from Lagos.

Agagu's casket remained intact, but failed to open after all efforts by the rescue teams has now been moved to the Air force base close to the Airport.

The minister of aviation now states that 8 people survived the crash, claiming two were earlier taken to hospitals before the head for victims of the crash began.

Nigeria has been hit by all sorts of plane crash in the recent past and the cause of these crashes have been negligence on the part of the people in authority... Incidentally, the late Governor was a former Minister of Aviation in Nigeria.
