Drama erupted at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport in Lagos on Sunday when a female passenger on an Ibom Air flight from Uyo assaulted a flight attendant and later clashed with airport officials.
According to eyewitness accounts, the in-flight drama began when the passenger reportedly struck an air hostess during the trip.

The situation escalated after landing, with viral videos showing the woman confronting security personnel on the tarmac before being forcibly escorted into an airport bus.
The Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) has since issued a stern reminder to air travellers that air travel comes with responsibilities as well as rights, stressing that unruly behaviour will not be tolerated.
This latest incident follows closely on the heels of another high-profile case, in which Fuji legend Wasiu Ayinde, popularly known as KWAM1, was handed a flight ban after an altercation with ValueJet staff at Abuja’s Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport.
On August 6, 2025, Starlitenews reported how popular Fuji musician and staunch loyalist of President Bola Tinubu, Wasiu Ayinde Marshal, better known as K1 De Ultimate, violently disrupted a scheduled flight at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport in Abuja, leading to a serious breach of aviation safety protocols.
