Former Lagos State governor and one of the leaders of All Progressives Congress, APC, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, who returned to the country yesterday, shortly after his rousing welcome, visited the survivors of last week’s Associated Airline plane crash at the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital (LASUTH), where they are currently receiving treatment.
Tinubu was accompanied on the visit by his wife, Senator Oluremi; the interim national publicity secretary of the APC, Alhaji Lai Mohammed; Speaker of Lagos State House of Assembly, Mr. Adeyemi Ikuforiji and other party stalwarts...[continue]
The former Lagos governor spent some time at the ward visiting the patients.
He described the death of the former Ondo State governor, Dr. Olusegun Agagu, whose coprse was being transported to Akure for burial when the plane crashed shortly after take-off from the Murtala Muhammed Airport, Lagos, as a great loss to the country just as he described Agagu as a good man he will miss despite their partisan differences.
He said Nigerians should give thanks to God for sparing the lives of Agagu’s son, Feyi; and the son-in-law, Femi Akinsanya, in the crash, noting that government needs to fix the corruption and rot in the aviation sector.
