6 Nigerians Among Crane Crash Victims by zinachidi(m): 1:55am On Sep 16, 2015 |
Six Nigerian pilgrims were among the 111 victims of Friday’s crane crash at the Grand Mosque in Makkah “We lost six pilgrims — two males and four females,” Uba Mana, a spokesman for the National Haj Commission of Nigeria, told AFP on Monday. “We can’t say this is the final death toll because the situation is still unfolding. We are still visiting the hospitals and mortuaries in search of more casualties from Nigeria,” he said. Mana said some 58,000 Nigerians were already in the Kingdom for the Haj out of 76,000 expected for this year’s pilgrimage. “The rest will be airlifted in the coming days,” he said. Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari on Monday sent “his heartfelt condolences to the families, relations and friends of the Nigerian victims of the crane accident.” Buhari urged “Nigerians to join him in praying for the quick and full recovery” of the injured. www.arabnews.com/saudi-arabia/news/806961 Cc: lalasticlala |
