The management of Dana Air is aware of
allegations that its Insurers have refused to pay compensation to the families
of victims of the tragic accident of June 3, 2012, and we wish to state that
these allegations are not true.
The true
position is that 84 families have received advance payments of 30,000 USD and
payment of final settlement to families who have produced the requisite Letters
of Administration (and Letter of Guardianship in the case of minors) has
commenced, following authentification of the document by the Probate Registry.
Our insurers are
continuing to deal with all other claims, including all who incurred losses on
ground at Iju-Ishaga, in accordance with the applicable law.
We would like to
thank the Lagos State Government for the cooperation and assistance rendered so
far. With the waiver of statutory fees and fast-track system, families
will have the requisite documents expeditiously.
Dana Air shares in the pain of all the
affected families and we wish to reiterate the readiness of our insurers to
settle all claims in accordance with the law, at the earliest opportunity.0
