In the picture below are the wife and the child of Professor Pius Adesanmi, the Nigerian Canada based scholar who met his death in the ill-fated Ethiopian Airline that killed him and 156 others on Sunday, 10th of March, 2019.
Mrs. Adesanmi in the picture is seen breaking the news of her husband’s death to their daughter, Tise, in Canada while suspending her own grief.
The aircraft, a Boeing 737 MAX 8 carrying 149 passengers and eight crew members, lost contact with air traffic controllers six minutes after taking off on its way to Nairobi, Kenya.
It crashed near Bishoftu, southeast of the Ethiopian capital, Ethiopian Airlines said in a statement.
The airline said 32 Kenyans, 18 Canadians, eight Americans and seven British nationals were among the passengers.
Adesanmi flew on a Canadian passport. He posed with the passport in the last picture he posted on Facebook on Saturday morning.
