DANA Air Licence Suspended Yet Again

The Federal Government on Sunday night suspended Dana's Air operation nationwide.  This comes barely 3 days after the ill-fated plane that killed 14 people in Lagos State.

According to Punch,

The decision to suspend Dana’s operations came 24 hours after the NCAA grounded the operations of Associated Airlines, whose Embraer 120 plane crashed near a fuel depot two minutes after takeoff at the Lagos airport, leaving only six survivors.

The charter plane was conveying the remains of a former Governor of Ondo State, Dr. Olusegun Agagu, to Akure for interment. It also had on board 20 people, including officials of the state government, family members and friends of Agagu.
