“Everything happened so fast”: How Agagu’s son and Femi Akinsanya survived Lagos plane crash

Startling details have come to light as to how uncomfortable Feyi, the late son of the recently deceased and buried former Governor of Ondo State, Olusegun Agagu, felt about the state of the crashed plane that was carrying his father’s remains with him and several others in it.
According to reports, Feyi, who is one of the survivors, confided to family and friends that he was uneasy about the plane the minute he laid eyes on it but he was reassured by his brother-in-law, Femi Akinsanya, who also survived.
It was this concern that made the duo cautious and caused them to find seats at the rear of the plane and this was one of the reasons why they escaped largely unscathed. The front of the plane hit the ground first and went up in flames making it impossible for those seated in front to get out alive.
Nigerian Eye reports:

According to the family insider Feyi spoke to, “the young man said that once they got to the tarmac before boarding and once he sighted the plane, what struck him was the seemingly very old look of the plane”. Continuing, the source narrated: “Feyi said he didn’t like the looks of the plane. “He also said but for the importance and significance of the trip, his inner sense didn’t feel comfortable boarding the plane.
“In fact, Feyi said he told another survivor, Femi Akinsanya, that the plane looked too old and he didn’t feel like boarding.
“ But Feyi said he was told not to get himself worked up needlessly since this was not going to be his first time aboard a plane neither would this be the first old-looking plane that he would board.
“That was how he said he boarded the plane”.
Our source was told by the source that Feyi recounted “how he and Femi Akinsanya boarded the plane and moved straight to the back end to take up seats.”
“Why Feyi chose the back seat”, the source said, “was more a function of his state of mind about the state of the plane rather than a preference for taking a back seat.
“When they sat down, Feyi told me that he and Femi simply prayed that they should just take off and land safely, oblivious of what lay ahead of them.
“Feyi said once they took off, everything happened so fast.
“What he also told me was that both he and Femi noticed what looked like a crack not far from where they sat at the rear end of the plane.
“He said everything happened so fast that by the time the plane crashed on the ground, it was that crack that had been noticed earlier that transformed into a gaping exit point upon impact on the ground.
“Feyi said the exit point created was where he and Femi escaped through”.
Another source further revealed that most of the survivors of the crash appeared to be those seated at the rear end of the plane.
This is further corroborated by the fact that the first point of impact was the frontal part which eventually caught fire soon after crash-landing.

SPAIN TO HOLD CULTURAL WEEK IN ABUJA

The Ambassador of Spain to Nigeria and ECOWAS, Alvaro Castillo Aguilar, on Friday, said the 8th Spanish Cultural Week will hold from October 7 to 11 in Abuja.
The ambassador made the statement during a press conference held in preparation for the occasion in Abuja.

He noted that the embassy has made effort to keep alive the activity of the country’s cultural agenda, not only to allow Spanish nationals bring “the Nigerian public and those of other nationalities close to their culture, but to also serve as a medium of integrating two cultures so close and, at the same time, so far away from each other, as are those of Spain and Nigeria.”
“In order not to lose the nature of the event, we shall get involved one more time this year with different activities that will evolve around a common theme, which is the figure and work of Federico Garcia Lorca and his generation,” he said. “The Anabel Veloso Dance Troupe will render homage to the poet and his contemporaries through their recently premiered show, ‘The Generation of the 80s: offspring of the 27s’ and will fill the hall with verses of Lorca, brushstrokes of Dali and, of course, with the rhythm of Flamenco.
“The poetic work of our homage will also be the inspiration of the young Nigerian artistic talents, who will cast the verses of the author into their colour palettes and workshops, giving forms and colour to the verses of Lorca,” he said.
Aguilar added that besides the Flamenco Show, the Gastronomy Week and the Art Competition, this year will also witness excellent performances of the Jos Repertory Theatre, rendering Spanish works in English Language.
“On this occasion, Federico Garcia Lorca’s play, ‘La zapatera prodigiosa’ (The Shoemaker’s Wonderful Wife), will be performed,” he said.

TRESPASSER ARRESTED AT RIHANNA'S $12 MILLION HOME

Another attempted break-in occurred at Rihanna‘s home on Friday October 4, 2013, but this time the intruder was arrested by police.
A man was caught red-handed by the singer’s security team as he attempted to scale the wall surrounding her plush Pacific Palisades mansion at 11am on Friday morning Friday October 4, 2013. The would-be home invader fled the scene, but police caught up with him a mile away from the superstar’s $12 million property, TMZ reports.
This comes after a group of burglars tried to break into Rihanna’s home last weekend – only to be thwarted by the burglar alarm, which was set off when they threw a chair through a sliding glass door. It appears the trespasser could be one of the original gang as he looked ‘very much’ like one of the suspects when police reviewed the security footage from the first break-in.
The 25-year-old star wasn’t at home during either of the incidents since she is currently on the Australian leg of her ‘Diamonds’ world tour. Cops are still on the lookout for the original intruders, who entered the grounds by cruising up Rihanna’ private road by car, ignoring the sign reading, ‘Smile, you’re on camera’, in her driveway.
This marks the third incident in recent months of attempted break-ins at Rihanna’s place. In June, a man was caught by her security team climbing onto her roof, while back in February a wannabe thief accidentally broke into her neighbour’s house instead of hers.
