Senate President David Mark has described the plane crash in Lagos on Thursday as sad and a disheartening double tragedy to Nigerians.
Mark said this in a statement by his Special Adviser on Media, Mr. Kola Ologbondiyan, in Abuja.
The Senate president noted with concern that the death of most passengers in the chartered aircraft, which belonged to Associated Airline, was highly unfortunate at a period when Nigerians were still mourning the death of the late former Governor Segun Agagu. He said, "This is more than double tragedy. It is sad. It is disheartening. This is death too cruel."
"This is one tragedy that a man is tempted to question the essence of human existence. But as ordinary mortals, we lack the locus standinto question our creator.
"In all circumstances, we give thanks to the Almighty. May God's wish be done."
Mark added that the Senate shared in the pains caused by the incident.
He prayed that God would give the nation, especially the immediate families of the deceased, the fortitude to bear the painful loss.
He also prayed that the souls of the departed would rest in peace.
