My thoughts and Prayers are with Comr Yenagoa Samson Pereakpo and Pharm Kelvin Keme Yenagoa who lost their parents and other family members in a painful auto crash along the Glory Land Drive, after just attending the wedding ceremony of the latter.
I equally sympathize with the family of the two brothers, as well as other families whose family members were involved in the irksome accident, which so far has claimed 9 lives.
While I pray for the departed souls to rest in peace, I also pray for quick recovery to those with various degrees of injury who are receiving treatments in various healthcare facilities.
May the almighty God strengthen all the bereaved families, and grant them the fortitude to bear this loss.
