Despite the great tragedy that occurred yesterday, where the plane
carrying Agagu's corpse crashed and killed 15 people, members of the
late governor's family have insisted that they will go ahead with his
burial. The Chairman of Ondo State PDP, Mr. Ebenezer Alabi, made this
known yesterday.
“We have just consulted with the family and it has been decided that they would go ahead with the burial. This is more so that his son, and son-in-law survived the crash. We are also aware that the casket bearing Agagu’s body was not affected by the crash. While we sympathise with the families of those who lost their loved ones in the crash, we will go ahead with the burial.” He said
Agagu will be buried today at his home town in Iju-Odo, Okitipupa LGA of
Ondo state. St. Paul’s Anglican Church, Iju-Odo has
been and renovated for the burial service while
major roads leading into the town had been rehabilitated. The grave
where Agagu will be buried in the church cemetery has also been
decorated to give him a befitting farewell, News Agency of Nigeria
reports. See more photos after the cut...
