Comfort Emmanson, the passenger involved in the August 10, 2025 Ibom Air incident, has been discharged by an Ikeja Magistrate Court in Lagos after the police withdrew the five charges against her.
The court granted the withdrawal application following a request by the prosecution counsel, Oluwabunmi Adeitan, who cited new developments in the case.
The police withdrew the charges after Ibom Air agreed to drop its complaint against Emmanson, as announced by Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Festus Keyamo.
Keyamo stated that the decision was reached after reviewing the incident, considering appeals from well-meaning individuals, and noting the remorse shown by Emmanson.
The Airline Operators of Nigeria (AON) has agreed to lift the lifetime flying ban imposed on Emmanson.
