Sadder day today...

...every day in Nigeria is a sad day but today is sadder still.
A plane carrying over one hundred passengers crashed into a residential building in Lagos state following a bomb blast which occurred in a Church in Bauchi State. I had planned to put up some pictures and make a new post today but I just tire! I feel a lot of hurt, pain, anger and also scared at the senselessness of it all. Just when you think it couldn't get any worse...                                                                                                                                


To those that lost friends, family(ies), loved ones, acquaintances...  I pray Allah (SWT) gives you strength to bear the loss and come out stronger. To the souls  that were lost may Allah (SWT) gently guide you to where you will worry and suffer no more. For as painful as it may seem, you are the lucky ones, we are left to pick up the pieces, struggle to make sense of it all, find closure and eventually move on.


A three day mourning period has been declared by the Federal Government but three days is nothing if at the end of it nothing is done or put in place to make sure it never happens again... because it has happened again. Nigerians just need to know and believe that there is light at the end of the tunnel, it's not enough to "hope" anymore.
