The Nigerians in Diaspora Commission (NiDCOM) has expressed condolences to a Nigerian family following the tragic deaths of a woman and her two children in a road accident in Texas, United States.
NiDCOM Chairman Abike Dabiri-Erewa extended sympathy in a statement issued by the commission’s Head of Media, Public Relations and Protocols Unit on Friday.
The victims, US-based Nigerian woman Nihinlolawa Agboro and her children, Temiloluwa and Isaac, lost their lives when a truck collided with their sport utility vehicle on a highway in Fort Bend County on Sunday morning.
According to local reports, the crash occurred shortly before 9:30 am between Harlem Road and Pitts Road. Authorities said the truck lost control, crossed the median, and struck the oncoming SUV carrying five occupants.
Commenting on the tragedy, Dabiri-Erewa said, “Such a sudden loss is heartbreaking for any family, especially during what should have been an ordinary journey.”
