Plane crashes in Nigeria, all 153 aboard dead
LAGOS, Nigeria - An aviation official says that all passengers on
board the plane that crashed in Nigeria's largest city have been killed.
Nigeria's Civil Aviation Authority Harold Denuren confirmed that all
the passengers on Sunday's Dana Air flight died. He did not say how many
were on the flight. However, the Lagos state government said in a
statement that 153 people were on the flight going from Abuja to Lagos.
The plane crashed in a densely-populated neighborhood near the airport.
Mohammed Sani Sidi, director general of the West African nation's
National Emergency Management Agency, said early Monday that at least 10
individuals in the Lagos neighborhood where the jet hit also had died, CNN reports.
