On this 40th day of the tragic accident of Sunday, June 3, the management and the over 540 staff of Dana Air remember specially all who lost their lives in the accident, and join their families, friends and all Nigerians in praying for the repose of their souls.
Since the incident, all of the senior management team of Dana Air have been focused on providing assistance to the families, and also full cooperation to the authorities in the on-going investigations into the cause of the accident.
Dana Air shares in the pains of the affected families and continues to work with the Lagos State Government and LASUTH to expedite the process of identification and release of bodies, so that the families can lay their loved ones to rest.
In honour of our duty to the families, interim payments to the next-of-kin who have completed legal verification of their documents have commenced. We remain in contact with all the families and relatives through the Crisis Management Centres which we have established in Lagos and Abuja, and will continue to assist them in this process.
Dana Air is also working closely with LASEMA with regards to rehabilitation of the displaced Iju-Ishaga residents. Relief materials were donated and steps have been taken to provide accommodation for the severely affected residents. All efforts will be made to ensure that losses caused by the accident will be indemnified.
We recognise and appreciate the efforts of the Federal Government, the Lagos State Government, as well as all NGOs and individuals who have come forward to offer assistance and support to the families. May the good Lord bless and reward you.
Once again, on behalf of everyone at Dana Air, allow us to extend our deepest condolences to the families and friends of the victims of this tragic accident. Our prayers and thoughts are with them forever.
Dana Air Management
