Tears flowed freely in Mbaabir Community in Gwer East, Benue State as the remains of a man, his wife and five children were laid to rest on Wednesday.
IDOMA VOICE reports that a man identified as Vangeryina Agbose, his wife and five children were crushed to death by overspending ToyotaPicnic bus last week near Taraku area of the state.
Residents could not hold back tears as the bodies were laid to rest side by side on Tuesday in their country home.

Performing the funeral rites, Very Revd. Fr. Moses Iorapuu prayed God to accept the souls of the deceased.
While praying God to give the immediate family members of the victims the fortitude to bear the painful lost, the cleric urged other sympathizers to always be heavenly conscious as death does not announce its coming.
