Senate Probes KWAM I, Emmanson Incidents by Tenisam: 11:43pm On Aug 12
The Senate on Tuesday vowed to investigate recent airline-passenger incidents in the nation’s aviation sector.
The Chairman, Senate Committee on Aviation, Senator Buhari Abdulfatai disclosed this in a statement in Abuja.
Abdulfatai expressed serious concern over recent high-profile airline–passenger incidents that have raised questions about operational standards, passenger rights, and the overall discipline within Nigeria’s aviation sector.
There have been incidents involving Fuji musician Wasiu Ayinde, popularly known as KWAM 1 and Value Jet Airline as well as Comfort Emmanson and Ibom Airline.
Speaking on the incidents, Senator Abdulfatai emphasised that these developments demand immediate and coordinated action to protect the integrity of the sector and restore public confidence.
“In the exercise of its constitutional powers, the Committee will be engaging key regulatory bodies, operators, security agencies, and public interest groups to establish the facts, review existing procedures, and ensure that any necessary corrective measures are swiftly implemented.
“We will not allow procedural gaps or lapses in enforcement to undermine safety, professionalism, or public trust in our aviation system.
“The Senate Committee on Aviation will ensure accountability at all levels,” Senator Abdulfatai said.
The Committee assured Nigerians that it is maintaining active oversight and will drive the process toward enforceable solutions that prevent a recurrence of such incidents.

In Nigeria the law is split into two. The poor face the law while the rich just need to issue an apology and everything is alright.

One case is already being prosecuted in court. The Legislative arm can not dabble into a case in court.

I hope this isn't one of these stunts the Senate pulls to maintain relevance in the eye of the public. These are sensitive issues and their handling could set a precedent for how airlines operate in the future.
An airline should have set standards for descalating issues with its passengers which should be adhered to buy all of its staff.
A lot of these guys act like touts. I hope that air hostess receives her due.

Senate should allow the aviation and police to do the investigation. Good laws that will transform Nigeria is what you were sent to make

The lady wanted to come down from the plane on her own but was blocked from doing so but later dragged out with force and indignity.
If de-escalation was the focus, she ought to have been allowed to disembark and get picked up by security personnel on ground.

Pls tell our senate to face the core legislative duties. They should have enough to do.
Let them stay off irrelevant issues ( irrelevant in this context means it's not the job of the senate)

Emmasson incident is a bad market for KWAM1 because no one would have say anything if this case of Ibom no happen but they know they are bias with their judgment and they see how people are talking about impunity enjoyed by Kwam1
So de want refresh the mata....

Injustice and dehumanisation is staring at us and you called it irrelevant issues? Remember, it could be you or any of your relatives. Maybe then you will have the temerity to refer to it as irrelevant issues.

Is the senate now jobless? What is the work of the police again? The senate should focus on holding Escobar accountable so he can do everything he promised to do. That's their job!

Please where did the plane land Lagos or uyo?
If Lagos someone should please report the team that took made her nude, her nude pictures and circulated it to the los state sexual offenders court
Let's see if they have jurisdiction on the matter,those ones are genuinely serious about their jobs
I can't believe she paid her own money to be humiliated like that and then incarcerated, over a matter that could have been and should have been de escalated

Airlines should have mandatory handcuffs on board
Airplanes are not meant to convey criminals, its highly illogical for cabin crew to move around with handcuff
We enjoy blaming the institutions, condemning our leaders so much But we no dey like correct ourselves .. that one thing i noticed
Nigerian travel outside and comply with all manners of rules like sheep But the moment they fly into muritala airport they want to flaunt any correction or riule ,. do you know who i am
everybody in Nig. is a big man or big lady in our heads, nobody can correct me.
i believe in prevention, we dont have a justice system don't let social media court push you ... avoid needless troubles/crisis

It is not the job of the Senate. They should face their job squarely
NCAA and other relevant bodies should handle Aviation issues.
The issue is not relevant to the Senate.
