The families of the victims of Dana Air Tragedy will be hosted by the Nigerian Leadership Initiative (NLI) on July 14 at the Muson Center, Lagos at 10am.

An Information Forum is being organized to assist the families and dependents, of victims, with their problems and concerns during the grieving process as well as disseminate information on their options and rights resulting from the tragedy. Specifically, specialist advice and guidance will be offered on a range of issues including:-
- Counselling and Welfare
- Rights and options for families and dependents
- Next steps and processes in accident investigation of Dana Air flight 992


Contributing to the forum are NLI Senior Fellow Oba Nsugbe QC, SAN, Dr. Femi Olugbile (Psychiatrist), Captain Dayo Awobokun (qualified Pilot and Flight Safety Expert), and Jim Morris (qualified Boeing Pilot and Aviation Specialist) from the UK.

According to Mr. Yinka Oyinlola, the CEO of NLI, this information forum is “valuable for victims’ families to be aware of the resources and recourse during this period of sorrow. Moreover, we hope that, through this effort, there will be enhanced awareness that will make Nigerians demand more in terms of air safety.”
