This was contained in a statement on Friday by the airline’s spokesman, Adebanji Ola.
The statement read, “Arising from the devastating impact
of the COVID-19 pandemic, leading to the constrained ability of the airline to
complete heavy maintenance activities and return its planes to operations,
stunted revenues against increasing operational costs, the management of Arik
Air (In Receivership) has declared 300 staff members redundant to its current
level of operations.
“The leadership of the impacted unions have been
contacted to negotiate a redundancy package for the affected staff.”
“50 per cent of Arik Air’s workforce of over 1,600 staff has been on an unpaid leave of absence in the past six months on a base allowance.”
