An eerie tragedy occurred in Nigeria yesterday, as an airplane in Lagos, crashed upon takeoff, whilst carrying the corpse of former State Governor Olusegun Agagu. His family members headed to his funeral scheduled for this week, were also onboard the tragic flight that ended in fatalities.
The plane crash killed 16 of the 20 occupants onboard, after it burst into flames upon impact. ABC News reported the pilot attempted to turn the plane around upon takeoff, when he detected a problem with the aircraft, but was unable to safely return the plane to the airport.
