A violent incident occurred on an Ibom Air flight at Lagos' Murtala Muhammed International Airport involving passenger Comfort Emmanson, who assaulted a flight attendant and clashed with airport security. Following the altercation, Emmanson was banned for life by Ibom Air and subsequently charged to court, where she was remanded in Kirikiri prison. Videos circulated showing the incident, including one that revealed airport security personnel stripping Emmanson naked during the confrontation, prompting public backlash. The Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) called for eyewitnesses to come forward, while civic organizations demanded a thorough investigation and offered legal support to Emmanson. The Nigerian Bar Association condemned Ibom Air's lifetime ban on Emmanson, calling for its withdrawal and an apology. Several lawyers and human rights groups criticized the airline’s handling of the case and called for an independent probe. Aviation Minister Festus Keyamo intervened by ordering the withdrawal of criminal complaints against Emmanson and reducing her lifetime ban to one month. The court later struck out the charges against her, leading to her release from prison. After her release, Emmanson expressed ongoing distress over her treatment during the incident.
