Jane Mena Stands Up for Herself Against Ibom Air - Jane Mena Rebuts Ibom Air Criticism
In a series of recent posts on social media, influencer Jane Mena has publicly condemned the alleged rude and physically aggressive behaviour of cabin crew members from Ibom Air and 3flyunited Nigeria.
According to Mena's accounts, she has experienced similar mistreatment from both airlines. In one instance, while four months pregnant, she was asked to leave a flight due to a dispute over a printed "fit to fly" document, despite having a valid digital version on her phone[1][2].
Mena's posts have also highlighted a disturbing incident involving Ibom Air, where she accused the airline's staff of intentionally stripping a passenger naked and posting the video online to shame her[3]. This allegation has generated significant conversation about the conduct of airline personnel and passenger rights.
In another post, Mena called for the release of Comfort Emmanson, whom she defended against allegedly rude treatment by Ibom Air staff over a digital "fit to fly" receipt[4]. The court recently cleared a passenger involved in an unruly conduct incident on an Ibom Air flight, aligning with Mena's position that the airline staff was excessively harsh without just cause[2].
Mena ended her post with the hashtags "#fvckyouibomairline", "#FreeComfortemmason", and "FREE COMFORT AND LET HER DEFEND HERSELF". She left the aircraft in tears, bought another ticket, and continued her journey without making a scene due to her pregnancy and personal reasons[1].
These events have prompted public awareness and legal scrutiny surrounding passenger treatment on Nigerian airlines. The incidents have shifted the focus away from passenger behaviour and onto the actions of the airlines and their staff.
