Icecomrade: I was one of the few Nigerians who felt angered by reissuance of operating license to Dana Airline. While full compensations for the victims have not been met. The immediate and remote cause of the crash has not been made known to Nigerians. People must learn to take responsibility for their acts or ommissions. Jona. Thanks for doing the right thing

hardbody: I was actually trying to book my flight against Easter trip to the east, now I am scared, I may either go by road, or completely skip this Easter a beg. Which reminds me, I drove to Ojo Alaba today and I realized that all these talk about eko o nibaje is rubbish, I spent a cumulative 6 hours to and from barracks and I regret every minute and hour I spent on that road with near misses by other road users.

Omo_Tier1: If this is true, the FG government is wasting their time seeking any investor to come investing in the aviation industry. I have said it again and again, there is no room for sentiment in the aviation industry!

When Air accident happens, investigations are carried out and corrective action (if any) is put in place. Any individual found wanting is prosecuted accordingly. Revoking the operating license of the Airliner is the most senseless thing to do. Rather, a review of the Airworthiness of the Aircraft of the said Airliner as well as their compliance with the relevant ICAO and Airworthiness Authorities regulation is reviewed and if found to be okay, the Airliner is allowed to continue 'safe' operations.

Has the FG found Dana wanting and culpable in the ill fated crash? If yes, why haven't the FG prosecuted those responsible? Did the NCAA investigation found Dana not to be compliant with their airworthiness regulations? if yes, what was their recommendation and corrective actions?

I fail to see how the revocation of the Operating license of Dana help to improve air safety in Nigeria If I was the owner of Dana, and I am 100% certain that my aircraft are airworthy, I will move my operations to another West Africa nation and create my hub there. Countries like Ivory Coast, Senegal, are looking for investors to come help them set up national carriers, I am sure they would be happy to welcome the likes of the Dana who have an understanding of the business of aviation.

Billyonaire: We do not need Indians running Airlines in our Airspace. It is that simple! They are natural rippers. I hope its clear now, we are launching 4 National Carriers and Airline intervention programme is about to commence, let me let you into the secret. FRESH AIR!

blackmann: No matter what they do, it cannot bring back the lives of those people. I lost my mother-in-law on that flight, barely a month after my wedding, and it still burns me in my heart that she did not live to enjoy the fruits of her hard labor. RIP mum.

Catlanta: We love sentiments too much in this country. I flew dana airline recently and the flight was FULL, If so many people feel so strongly about grounding the airline why not just boycott flying with them.

You see where your bigotted hate for GEJ has gotten you? You now go against everything GEJ does no matter how good it is, just to discredit him but in your haste, you shoot yourself in the foot and make a mockery of yourself. You support an evil company that wasted human lives just because you want to make GEJ look bad. You support evil men that kept flying a plane against the complaints of passengers and staff. An airline, that kept managing engines just to make money for its owners without caring about human souls. You along with the Dana management will answer for the blood spilled. You are pathetic.

Someone close to me said you brought ill luck to that family

gistme24: Was DANA AIR found culpable for the crash ? The good thing about this is that other operators will seat up and take extra care. But what happens to the jobs that would be lost ?
I feel a heavy sanction would have been better.

INNO18: Mr Jona, is doing what he was supposed to have done 6 months ago, anyway no lele, better late than never. Those Indian murderers can now fly their planes back to their country and murder their own people. After all they have more than 1 Billion meats to feed own.

musiwa19: supaeagles, the owners of dana are nigerian even while they look india.. did you not read their profile.. Like i once said.. northerners crash that plane... because of the satellite pictures.. 100% telling you the truth.

this is why I said remove the airport from the federal and give them to state..

You cant withdraw license, you can only suspend their license till they meet airline requirement.. But I am telling you. northerners crash that plane.. because of the satellite pictures.. it is the third airplane northerners are going to crash.. and you dont want to listen.. till they crash everything..

Omo_Tier1:
Can't see the logic in your reasoning Was Sosoliso, Air Nigeria, Bellview all owned by Indians? is Arik Air owned by Indians? As for the National Carriers, if you have access to the order book of Airbus or Boeing, then go have a look at see if there are still slots for any A320 family, B737 family, A330/340 or B777 family. Else, it means FG is going to purchase 'used' aircraft or will end up paying 1.5times the actual cost to compensate who ever owns the slots the want to take up.

Common sense would tell you that strengthening the likes of Arik Air, Aero who already have a near National Carrier status both in West Africa and on international routes is the best way forward for now. Aircraft is not crayfish to you can go to the market and buy anytime you like.

Beside, since FG have failed woefully to tackle corruption, it will only be a matter of time before the planes they are planning to purchase would end up as spares to the privately owned Airliners..

On the DANA AOC revocation, it is a senseless act that would do the aviation industry no good.

otokx: Our representatives said they do not want DANA in Nigeria again, is that too hard to comprehend?

sluvy4tune: I wonder why we just can't be sincere in this country even when peoples life is at stake another Dana crash was averted on saturday enroute Abuja , Even the press is silent over the issue...the only saving grace was that the plane almost landing before one of its engine went bad...Kai I pity Nigerians !!!

ebamma: Just a tip for all those air travellers, the next air crash is not going to be dana air, if you like avoid them if u like patronise them
