Plane carrying Agagu's remains and 20 passengers crash in Lagos

 The casket, bearing the corpse of the Ondo State former governor, Dr. Olusegun Agagu, has been recovered by rescue agencies at the site of the Associated Airlines plane, which crashed in Lagos this morning.
The remains of the former University of Ibadan lecturer were due to be interred in Ondo State this weekend after a series of events by the state government. The plane was conveying Agagu’s body to Akure, the Ondo State capital, when it crashed around the MMIA in Lagos.
Punch reports that one of their correspondents, who gathered that the body of the former governor had been recovered, could not, however, ascertain the state of the corpse or that of the casket.
So far, rescue agencies have recovered the bodies of nine victims of the Associated Airlines plane crash.
