Keyamo
Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Festus Keyamo, has ordered a thorough investigation into the recent altercation between Air Peace and former Edo State Governor, Adams Oshiomhole, at the Murtala Muhammed Airport in Lagos.
The dispute arose when Oshiomhole allegedly missed a scheduled Air Peace flight and reacted aggressively, according to the airline.
In contrast, Oshiomhole claimed he was standing against extortion and arbitrary policy changes by the airline.
Keyamo has directed aviation agencies to exercise restraint, avoid hasty conclusions, and collect evidence for a comprehensive probe.
Both parties have been urged to suspend public accusations and counter-accusations while the investigation is ongoing.
The outcome is expected to guide future conduct in similar situations, ensuring fairness and impartiality in Nigeria’s aviation sector.
The incident highlights the need for clear guidelines and regulations to prevent such disputes in the future.
With Keyamo’s intervention, the aviation sector hopes for a resolution that will promote a more efficient and passenger-friendly air travel experience.
