British Antonia Attuh, 46, among those killed on Dana Flight

R.I.P Antonia Attuh, 46, who was married with three children, was travelling for a training course in Nigeria’s largest city from her home in the capital, Abuja, where she worked for the country’s Central Bank.

Her parents, from Wavertree, Liverpool, said yesterday that they learned about the crash of the Dana Air MD-83 as they watched the television news.

Edwin Chime, 82, Mrs Attuh’s father, said he feared the worst because his daughter had called him before she travelled on Sunday to say that she would be on the Dana Air flight.

Relatives have already travelled to Lagos to try to identify Mrs Attuh’s remains.

Emergency services continued to search the crash site for bodies yesterday. The remains of more than 140 people have been found.

Our thoughts remain with her family, may the souls of all the departed rest in peace Amen.
