Family members, loved ones, and sympathisers thronged the residence of the late Dr Ibrahim Murtala Mohammed, Minister of Environment, Science, Technology and Innovation, following his untimely death in a military helicopter crash on August 6, 2025, along with seven others.
The atmosphere at the residence was filled with sorrow and grief as mourners gathered to console the bereaved family and pay their respects.
Among those present was Edward Bawa, a former Member of Parliament for Bongo and current CEO and Managing Director of GOIL PLC.
