Ozoemena Adolphus, a Lagos-based civil servant, has narrated how his N77,000 has been stuck between Dana Air, a Nigerian airline, and OPay, a fintech company, since July 20.

Speaking with FIJ on Monday, Adolphus said that he was attempting to book a flight from Abuja to Lagos when the transaction failed.

“On July 20, I attempted to schedule a flight with Dana Air but it was unsuccessful,” Adolphus told FIJ.
