Thirteen passengers and seven crew members were on board the Associated Airlines’ Embraer 120 plane that crashed shortly after take-off from the local wing of the Murtala Muhammed International Airport in Lagos on Thursday, according to the flight’s passenger manifest obtained by PANA.
In addition to the 20 people on board, the plane was carrying the remains of a former Governor of South-west Ondo State, Dr. Olusegun Agagu, who died last month and was to be buried on Friday in the state.
