Amaechi’s wife not involved in assault of airport officials — FAAN


 The Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) has debunked the allegation that wife of the Minister of Transportation, Mrs Judith Amaechi, supervised the assault and manhandling of some airport officials on May 26. 

The General Manager, Corporate Affairs of FAAN, Mrs Henrietta Yakubu, made the denial on Friday in Lagos. Some online media had claimed that Amaechi and her aides assaulted the officials at the Port Harcourt International Airport.
They had alleged that the officials were assaulted because they refused her from boarding an Air Peace flight from Port Harcourt to Abuja. However, Yakubu said: “The authority will like to state emphatically that the incident has nothing to do with the minister’s wife. “It was between some security personnel at the airport and the airline officials.’’ Also, Mr Chris Iwarah, General Manager, Corporate Communications, Air Peace, told NAN that the airline was still investigating the alleged incident. “We are still investigating the incident but as an airline, it is not in our character to join issues with our customers who are part of the Air Peace family,’’ he said.

Chike Ukaegbu ‏   @ chikeukaegbu This week has been a quiet but also fulfilling one for me. I ended campaigning at my alma mater, Dority International Secondary School and Intl Early Learning School, where I engaged teachers, parents and students from Primary 4 all through to SS3 (grades 4 - 12).  See More Pivtures on LinkedIn.com The kids were ecstatic because for them, here was a former student who once stood in their shoes. Many right there convinced their parents to vote AAP because I was their candidate. Even the younger kids knew my name, party and ballot number. I was shocked. They all asked brilliant questions. I thought I was in a real townhall meeting with grown folks. This was the 'high' I needed to conclude this phase of a very life-altering rollercoaster journey. As did say, regardless of the outcome of the elections this saturday, (assuming nothing else happens) I am committed to nation building by investing in youth lives. Thank you all ...
