The Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority NCAA has commenced a formal investigation into the recent altercation between Comfort Emanson, a passenger, and members of the Ibom Air crew.
As part of the ongoing probe, NCAA officials met yesterday in Abuja with Julie Edwards, a crew member accused of masterminding the passengers’ ordeal and other crew members who were directly involved in the incident.
The NCAA made this known through a post by its publicist, Michael Achimugu, on his X account today.
The Authority’s team included representatives from key directorates, such as Aviation Security, Operations, Licensing, Training Standards, Legal, and Consumer Protection, which were said to be working to ensure a thorough and impartial review of the incident.
The embattled passenger had also been scheduled to meet with the Authority later today.
