After license suspension, Dana Air releases fresh announcement

Several employees of Dana Air were let go a few weeks after the Nigerian government suspended operations.

The airline’s head of corporate communications, Kingsley Ezen, attributed the move in a statement released on Saturday to the ongoing audit by Nigerian regulatory authorities.

“In light of the ongoing audit, Dana Air has decided to temporarily disengage some staff members pending the conclusion of the audit,” Ezenwa said.

“The Management of Dana Air extends its sincere appreciation to all staff members for their resilience and dedication during this period of uncertainty. It recognises the difficulties that staff have had to endure and assures them that every effort is being made to resolve the situation promptly,” it added.

Recall that on April 24, 24 hours after Dana Air’s aircraft from Abuja touched down on the Lagos airport runway and veered off into a neighboring field, the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority suspended the airline’s Air Operators Certificate.

Festus Keyamo, the Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, responded to the news by stating that the airline had been running in a hazardous manner.
