Ogun NNPP candidate, Olufemi Ajadi drags Dana Air over ‘failed flight’, demands N50m
Gubernatorial candidate of New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP) in Ogun State, Ambassador Olufemi Ajadi has demanded the sum of N50m from Dana Air over what he described as breach of contract.
Ajadi claimed that he secured the ticket of the airline to board a flight from Abuja to Lagos Friday night, but the airline failed to fly him as scheduled.
He added that he was one of the stranded passengers on Friday in Abuja.
Ajadi alleged that he, alongside other passengers, expected to be airlifted by Dana flight 356 but the aircraft failed to arrive.
He further alleged that there was neither a genuine concern nor explanation by the airline management.
He alleged that he missed an important business meeting in Abeokuta as a result of the development.
He said, “This act of negligence and breach of contract has made me unable to meet an important business meeting scheduled for Abeokuta.
“The Dana Air management not only failed to board us, making us lose valuable meetings and keeping us out in the dark, stranded, no food, causing someone to lose millions in contract. This is not acceptable.
“With this, it has breached its duties under the civil aviation Act of 2006, Warsaw convention of 1929 and Montreal convention of 1999 which are all domesticated and applicable in Nigeria,
“I am demanding fifty million naira (N50,000,000. 00) damages for making me miss the scheduled business meeting in Abeokuta.”
