On Sunday, 3RD of June 2012, (termed black sunday because of the crash and the killing of Christians Worshippers in the church by Islamic sect popularly known as Boko Haram)a DANA Airline Flight 0992 crashed into a busy and highly populated residential area in a Lagos suburb called iju Agege killing all 153 persons on board and those on land.
My friend, a staff of Central Bank of Nigeria was at the Lagos Airport that sunday afternoon waiting for that particular aircraft that was coming from Abuja to Lagos and will be returning back to Abuja. She called that i should pray that the flight is not unnecessarily delayed because she does not want to arrive Abuja late. We prayed for journey mercy and quick arrival of the aircraft. That was where we left the BB chatting until she called me with the sad news. I initially argued with her that the Nigerian plane that crashed was a Boeing 727 Cargo Airliner belonging to Allied Air in Ghana and it was a Cargo plane not a passenger plane although it killed 10 in a Bus. I tried calming her and quickly check the telly only to see
breaking news.
I was shocked because i was not expecting that. Why am i saying the crash was unexpected, DANA Aircrafts are always looking neat and well maintained compared to the others parked at the tarmac. Also, the last crash some years back caused serious reforms in the Aviation Industry and i thought the regulators were up and doing in inspecting aircraft before approval to fly. Honestly I fly DANA Air anytime and it had earned my respect with their service and the state of their Aircrafts. I guess Appearance alone does not say an aircraft is good to fly. Apart from that, Dana Air is the only one with many Aircrafts unlike others with just one. It so unfortunate that this has to happen now with the Boko Haram killing and bombing in the North.
GOD will have to help us and deliver us from these blood suckers that have been unleached upon this Nation by the Politicians. One of the retired Generals who is so desperate to be the President of this Country said some weeks back that if he is not allowed to rule (if the election in 2015 does not favour him) there would be mayhem. Is that the type of a President we need, the type that has this
if it is not me then no other person
attitude? NO we do not need that type. We need the one that will come to power and enthroned righeousness, peace and progress.
Anyway, thank GOD my friend did not board the flight because it crashed minutes before landing in Lagos. My friend was lucky but 153 people on board and several on the ground were not. May their souls rest in perfect peace.

These are the staff of Central Bank of Nigeria who lost their lives in the ill fated Dana Airline flight of no return. They were coming to Lagos for a Course in their training School. This is the course that my friend attended and was going back to Abuja. Amongs them were Assistant Director Hajia FALMATA KUR MOHAMMED.
The President, President Goodluck Jonathan signing the condolence register opened for the DANA Air aircraft crash victims yesterday at the State House, Abuja.
This reporter for CCTV was supposed to be on board but God saved him.
These are the staff of NUC who were on official assignment to inspect a private University in Lagos but ended up in the belly of the earth. Real tragedy. The leader of the team was Professor Celestine Onwuliri, former VC Fedreal University of Science. The other five are Deputy Directors.

The Federal Government declared 3 days national mourning and the state where the crash took place declared a week of mourning but we know in the hearts of all especially their loved ones, the grief will remain.
May GOD wipe away the tears from the eyes of all that mourn and share in the grief of the tragic incident. According to Hebrew 13:14,
"for here we have no lasting city but we seek the city which is to come."
This is a temporary abode. Our home is in heaven or where you are preparing to go to after death.
