Ibom Air saga: Comfort Emmanson debunks report of filing N500bn lawsuit against FG, NCAA, and others

Comfort Emmanson, the viral Ibom Air passenger that stirred controversy with unruly behaviour has dismissed a report linking her to a N500bn lawsuit against the Federal Government of Nigeria, the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA), Ibom Air, and others.

Emmanson made the clarification in a statement on her official page on Saturday, August 16.

This comes amid a recent report that Emmanson filed a suit through a lawyer, Ayodele Ademiluyi, in Lagos court demanding N500 billion.

However, Emmanson has distanced herself from the lawyer, saying that she’s yet to file any lawsuit against the government or Ibom Air.

She, however, said when she files a suit over Ibom Air ordeal, it will be made public by her.

She wrote:

APC considers scrapping consensus plan in some states ahead of 2027 primaries
Boko Haram Issues 72-Hour Ultimatum Over 416 Borno Captives
There will be no election in 2027 – Dele Farotimi

“My attention has been drawn to fake report claiming that I have filed a N500 billion law suit against the Federal Government, NCAA, and others This information is false and misleading. I have not taken any legal action yet. When I eventually do anything of such nature (which is imminent) I will personally update the public myself via my official page.

“For the avoidance of of doubt my lawyer is Adam Atakpa of Kippraise Attorneys. I urged everyone to disregard this fake news.

Recall that Emmanson recently had an altercation with Ibom Air hostess on Sunday August 10, was remanded at the Kirikiri Correctional Centre, was later released and pardoned after the Minister of Aviation, Festus Keyamo’s intervention.
