AIR NIGERIA GROUNDED FOR SAFETY CHECKS
Officials say Nigeria’s
second-largest air carrier has been grounded for safety checks following a
strike by its engineers.
Harold Demuren of the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority said Wednesday that Air
Nigeria would be able to fly again after investigators finished their checks.
The investigation comes after engineers at the airline carried out an
on-and-off strike at the carrier.
A spokesman for the airline could not be immediately reached, though an
operator at its call center said the airline hoped to resume flights Thursday.
The temporary grounding of Air Nigeria
comes after a Dana Air flight June 3 crashed in Lagos,
killing all 153 people on board and others on the ground. A cause for that
crash has yet to be determined.
