The families of a newly wed couple have been thrown into mourning after the groom died in a ghastly accident a day after his court wedding and one week to the church wedding.

The groom identified as Adewale Adekunle Isaac and four other passengers were killed after an 18-seater bus plunged into Owena river in Aponmu village, Akure South Local Government Area of Ondo state on Sunday, April 18th.

Adewale was said to be returning to Akure with his wife, after their wedding at the Ikoyi Registry on Saturday April 17th.

“I am supposed to be his best man for the wedding…I lost a confidant and supporter today. This wound is forever. Rest on brother,” he wrote.
