Boat mishap: Corpses of three medical students recovered in Calabar

The late Tukur, until his passing, was the vice president of the medical students’ association at Ahmadu Bello University, the statement said.

“Both students were exceptional individuals, known for their dedication, compassion and academic prowess. They had a promising future ahead of them, and their loss was deeply felt by their families, classmates, professors, and everyone associated with the medical programme. “It surely was a painful exit, but we take solace knowing too well that they both lived a fruitful and impactful life. They will always be remembered for using their sojourn on earth wisely and well. They added to what they found on earth but did not subtract. They made and didn’t destroy, and they left things better than they found them,” said the association, which condoled with the families and friends of the deceased students.

The three deceased students were initially declared missing after 11 of their colleagues were rescued. The Governor of Cross River State, Bassey Otu, ordered an indefinite suspension of all cruise boat operations at Marina Resort in Calabar after the tragic incident.
