Dana Air pilots go on strike

Pilots of Dana Air on Thursday embarked on a strike action.

It was gathered that following the strike, none of the plane in the fleet of the airline operated.

This has left several passengers stranded across the country.

The spokesperson of the airline, Kingsley Ezenwa, confirmed the development.

Ezenwa, however, said source of the dispute had been resolved.

He said the airline has paid all salary arrears of the pilots as demanded.

He said the further grouse of the pilots over the delay in the payment of one of their allowances was not tenable.

He said this was because it was the airline that promised to pay them on its own and not the entitlement of the pilots.
