The Senate on Tuesday January 29 2013
issued a resolution asking the Federal Government of Nigeria to revoke
the operating license of Dana Air.
This decision is coming on the heels of
the report by the Senate and House of Representative Joint Committee on
Aviation concerning the investigation on the crashed Dana Airline. The
Senate also recommended that the Director General of the Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA), Harold Demuren be sacked ‘for negligence and incompetence’.
It would be recalled that in December
2012, NCAA issued a new Air Operators Certificate to Dana Air after the
Federal Government had earlier in September 2012, reinstated the
airline’s license allowing it to resume only test flights.
Dana Airline resumed flights with celebs including Baskethmouth, DIPP, Harrysong and Buchi flying with them on Friday, January 4, 2013 seven months after its flight 992, an MD-83 aircraft crashed in Iju Ishaga, a Lagos suburb, on Sunday June 3, 2012 killing over 153 passengers and crew members.
