dum_squared said...

Was this really an "accident"? I understand that both the corpse and casket were intact, where as many died or got injured... Could this be a fulfilment of the requirement for human heads by the dead? I still think this is a mystery, more than meets the eye. Cat corpse should have been burned!

Walking past in front of his office with a friend on a Sat morning,den I spotted his office across the road and I said to my friend..isn't dt d man frm TBS..d Motician..I love him..blah blah..and his workers standing right outside d office said yu r talking about our boss ooooo..we laughed and dey said du wanna see him???and dey beckoned us to come say hi...we went in to the office..and he had a guest buh his boys said to him,sir some ladies are here to see you and he stepped out immediately...gud afternoon ma dears..he gave us a hug without knowing us and said wt can I du for yu???we said sir we saw u on tv and we liked u and we jst wanted to say hello..and he laughed and hugged us again...he asked wtz ur name and I told him and he said..o de jo omo ibo ooo and I said rara sir o omo yoruba ni mi...
We said goodbye and he called us bk and gave us money for recharge card..I was like what a nice man..so we left and stopped outside again and said 2 ourselves..chai..we no even snap pictures wiv him..den we went bak..and dey called him out again!!and he said any problem my gurls..no sir we wanna take photographs..and he said to us...du wanna lie in d casket ..fell free gurls and we all laughed so much and we said no sir..dt we wud wanna snap wiv him..so we took the pictures and left..

Hmm! I still can't believe it that mr.okusanya is dead. U played the role of an: usher, band leader, choir coordinator, refreshment provider,a generous giver on every sunday in the Church. U gave ur Band for free during my wedding, two weeks after, u and ur lovely wife were d chairman of my uncles wife sisters' wedding. The purse u carry loaded with cash will always go empty after giving to the poor within and outside the church. U paid school fees for many. U gave hope to the hopeless. U provided accommodation. The entire Anchor Parish will miss you. Rest in peace. Atukpor victor

Linda so sad Ds I believe is carelessness .find out where Ds Yeye ex gov. Casket was secured?de must have put it in d cabin as against d rules of balancing instead of d cargo hole where de have anchors to secure it.and immediately after take off casket rolled back,airplane nosed up.lost balance since it was not anchored .before pilot could balance plane e was on ground ,since he has not gained altitude .all caused by eye service ex gov my foot.watch YouTube and apply ur sense of aero dynamics .cos it charted flight de let all safety rules go.

He never got tired of listening to me, advising me, he wld even call, tho a very busy man.. I was terribly heartbroken at some point, he helped me through, says I must be a "man" (his words). I wld go to his office when I'm broke. It ws sure for me anyday. He wld even give my friend money also, if I happen to go with one. I never knew him frm anywhere. He invited me once to his church too, he was happy I obliged, introduced me to his lovely family. Ohh God, why!!! I cry...

Such a painful loss for the Okusanyas and the MIC family. These men did their difficult job with grace and excellence right until the end. God rest their souls and comfort those left behind. I pray the government does something to bring an end to these painful air disasters before more innocent lives are lost.

It is easy for people to comment on this horrific incidence, but have you thought for a minute that it could have been you in the aircraft? This is a time for a sober reflection, take a minute to imagine what the early hours of Thursday the 3rd October was like to the victims, they must have gotten the local airport in Lagos with the hope of being in Akure in less than an hour in the air but, that was never to be.
It is so sad, very sad and absolutely sad to imagine this. One thing I know is that, life is short, death is sure and no Jesus no life, no meaning and no direction.
My heartfelt sympathy to all the families involved and may The Lord grant them the fortitude to bear the loss.
Adieu, the departed souls.
