Dana Air has said it is cooperating fully with the relevant authorities to investigate the circumstances surrounding the skidding of its aircraft off the runway at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport in Lagos State.

The Nigerian Safety Investigation Bureau (NSIB) earlier said it had begun an investigation into the incident.

A photograph of the aircraft obtained by SaharaReporters on Tuesday had captured the moment after the aircraft moved out of the runway.

It was also gathered that although there was panic, the passengers were evacuated safely and no casualty was recorded from the incident.

However, in a statement by the management of the airline on Tuesday, Dana noted that the plane flew into Lagos from the Nnamdi Azikiwe Airport, Abuja.

The airline said it regretted to inform the public of “a runway excursion involving one of its aircraft, registration number SN BKI, which was flying from Abuja to Lagos today.” 

Dana Air said it had also updated the Accident Investigation Bureau (AIB) and the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) on the incident, adding that the aircraft involved had been grounded by its maintenance team for further investigation.

“We are relieved to confirm that all 83 passengers and crew onboard the flight disembarked safely without injuries or scare as the crew handled the situation with utmost professionalism. 

“We wish to thank the airport authorities, our crew for their very swift response in ensuring the safe disembarkation of all passengers following the incident and our sincere apologies and appreciation to the passengers on the affected flight for their patience and understanding.” 

“We wish to reassure our passengers that their safety will always be our top priority, and we are cooperating fully with the relevant authorities to investigate the circumstances surrounding the incident,” Dana Air said.
