A Kenyan man, Paul Njoroge, who lost his wife, three children and mother-in-law in the Ethiopian Airlines' Boeing 737 crash in 2019, has finally been compensated by the aviation giant.

The compensation agreement was drawn up on Friday, meaning that Boeing will avoid a federal trial that had been slated for Monday, July 16.

However, the settlement has not been revealed publicly, although his lawyers confirmed to AFP that the settlement had been reached for a confidential amount. "The case has settled for a confidential amount," a spokesperson for Njoroge's legal team stated.

Njoroge's family succumbed when the Ethiopian Airlines flight 302 they were travelling in on March 10, 2019, crashed just six minutes after departing Addis Ababa for Nairobi.
