The management of Dana Air, is
expected to pay not less than
$100,000.00 as insurance claims
for each of the 153 passengers
who died during the incident.
This is in line with the
requirement of the
International Civil Aviation
Organization (ICAO).
The expected compensation
regime is also in line with the
the standard set by the ICAO,
Montreal Convention, which a
few years ago raised the
compensation to $100,000.00
from the $10,000.00 stipulated
by ICAO, according to the
Warsaw Convention.
Also, DANA Air is expected to
pay $250,000.00 respectively to
the families of the two pilots,
as compensation, while, the six
crew members’ will each be
paid $150,000.00 each.
However, the Government
agency have begun DNA tests
for the 148 Dana crash victims
who are already being taken to
Lagos State University Teaching
Hospital (LASUTH) morgue in
Ikeja in order to allow their
relatives to identify
them.According to a Federal
Road Safety Commission
spokesman Jonas Agwu gave
the details of the recovered
bodies as males 88, females 48
and children 12.
He noted the recovery of
bodies would continue today.
The General Manager of the
Lagos State Emergency
Management Authority
(LASEMA), Dr Femi Oke-
Osanyintolu, said the DNA test
is very important for victims
who burnt beyond
recongnitions.
He said the tests were being
carried out at LASUTH.
The bodies were taken to the
morgues at LASUTH and the
Mainland General Hospital. An
official said the identified
bodies were tagged. Another
FRSC official Mr. Fatai Adesina
Bakare stated that, “We have
also recovered a number of
personal effects, like handbags,
traveler’s bags, shoes, combs
and cash.
“We have, for instance, an
identity card of an employee of
NNPC, and from his purse, we
recovered some cash, and
business cards, which have
been lodged. We also recovered
a woman’s a purse containing
$114 and N4,000 cash.”
“We have created a desk where
all those personal effects are
been documented and officials
who are in charge would do
justice to them and ensure that
it gets to family members of
the victims safely.”
