Punchng.com, one of Nigeria’s top newspapers, reported on Tuesday morning that a Dana Air aircraft skidded off the runway at Murtala Muhammed International Airport in Lagos.
There is no indication where the plane was headed at the time of the incident.
The unpleasant incident occurred shortly after 10 a.m., but details remain limited at this time. Despite the absence of casualties, the complete scope of the situation remains uncertain.
Dana Air has recently been in the spotlight due to its competitive pricing strategies, particularly on the Nigeria-UK route, which has led to the airline becoming a favorite among Nigerian travelers for both domestic and international flights.
The airline’s attempts to lower ticket prices have sparked intense competition among other carriers operating in the region.
As of now, neither the airline nor the airport authorities have released an official statement regarding the incident. As the situation unfolds and investigations into the cause of the runway excursion begin, more information is likely to surface.
