Dana Air plane skids off Lagos airport runway (video)

 A Dana Air flight skidded off the Lagos airport runway, leading to the diversion of other flights to the international airport. 

A Nigerian on X, BelemaMhart,  who boarded another airline, shared photos and said that there were no casualties.

“We were about to land in Lagos and the pilot announced, he had to land at international and Taxi to local airport. On getting here, we learnt Dana Air had issues on landing, that was the reason our pilot was asked to land at the international airport. Thank God all passengers on Dana are safe.” Belema wrote

The affected aircraft, a McDonald Douglas (MD-83) with registration 5N-BKI, had 83 passengers on board.

The Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority NCAA is yet to react to this recent development.
