Omg! this is terrible news. So sad about their mother and the other people dat died. All the same, i thank God for saving the kids.

Wen will our roads be fixed? Nigerian roads are so unsafe. Wen will all this continue? How many more accidents and deaths till the govt decides to do something about our roads? How many more families have to die?


And some insensitive anonymous individual commented in the earlier post that it was travel insurance fraud. What do u have to say now? Huh wise-ass? People shld really learn to keep their mouths shut and deir fingers still wen dey are not sure of wat to say. You dont have to comment on every post.

May the souls of the departed rest in peace, May God grant the children speedy recovery, and also grant them and their dad the fortitude to bear the loss.

Mixed Blessing? Do you understand the nuances of the english language?

No blessing in this, just that it wasn't as bad as it could have been...

RIP to the mother, the mother's cousin and the driver but we thank God the children survived. It is no good blaming only the government for the potholes- more scarly is the way people drive very badly in nigeria- if you travel the road between abuja and jos or between abuja and akwanga, there is a hilly part where there are signs urging drivers to slow down- most people just ignore the signs and as a result, you can see hundreds of vehicles at the bottom of the hill.

I'm wondering where all those people who were wondering why he didn't contact the grandma or saying it was travel insurance fraud are now. they wouldn't come out to say anything again. may the souls of the departed rest in peace. thank God for the children.

I was expecting to hear good news that this family have been found but to read this is truly sad. May their souls rest in peace. May the Lord comfort their families. But truly how many people have to die before the govt do something about this death traps called roads in Nigeria. This is a sad situation.
