FG LIFTS BAN ON DANA AIRLINE

Just ninety-eight days after the Dana Airline plane crash in Lagos, which killed 153 persons, the Federal Government, yesterday, cleared the airline to resume operations.
The Minister of Aviation, Princess Stella Oduah, in a statement by her Special Adviser (Media), Joe Obi, said government decided to restore the operating licence of Dana airline because it was satisfied with the air-worthiness of the airline after a rigorous technical, operational and financial audit was conducted.

The announcement  immediately elicited condemnation from Labour, rights activists, lawyers and relations of the Dana crash victims, who said it was premature. Only 45 of the families of the victims have been compensated.

What do you guys think of this? Is it right or time for the ban to be lifted?
