The Anti-Bola Tinubu Man Kicked Out From Ibom Air Is Mentally Challenged- Lawyer

In a twist to the case of the anti-Bola Tinubu man removed from an Ibom Air flight from Abuja to Lagos, his lawyer has revealed shocking developments about the man now identified as Obiajulu Uja who he claims is mentally challenged.

The man was kicked out of an Ibom Air flight from Abuja to Lagos on Friday evening after he started screaming onboard the plane that Asiwaju Bola Tinubu must not be sworn in as president. His mental composure compelled the airline to remove him from the plane and subsequently detain him at the Abuja airport after his action caused the delay of the flight for about one hour. The suspect who has now been identified as coming from Oji-River Local Government Area of Enugu State according to his lawyer is mentally challenged.

His lawyer, Barr. Ejike Ugwu told newsmen on Saturday that Obiajulu is mentally challenged and was because of that forcibly checked out from the hotel he lodged in Abuja. Even more, he said that the man bought three different air tickets from different airlines for the flight to Lagos.

Ugwu, who said he was at the Airport Police Division to see the suspect, said the police were yet to provide him (suspect with medical care) despite his bad situation.

Recall that the man was kicked out of an Ibom Air flight from Abuja to Lagos on Friday evening after he started screaming onboard the plane that Asiwaju Bola Tinubu must not be sworn in as president.

His mental composure compelled the airline to remove him from the plane and subsequently detain him at the Abuja airport after his action caused the delay of the flight for about one hour.

His lawyer, Barr. Ejike Ugwu told newsmen on Saturday that Obiajulu is mentally challenged and was because of that forcibly checked out from the hotel he lodged in Abuja.

Even more, he said that the man bought three different air tickets from different airlines for the flight to Lagos.

Ugwu, who said he was at the Airport Police Division to see the suspect, said the police were yet to provide him (suspect with medical care) despite his bad situation.

“Obiajulu is not in the right state of mind; before he boarded the flight, he was chased away from a hotel in Abuja because of his mental state.

“He even booked three different flights for the Lagos trip. He booked Aero, Dana and Ibom Air. He had the three tickets for the same trip. So, there is no doubt that he is mentally challenged,” Ugwu said.

The lawyer said every effort he made to make the police see reason on why the suspect should be allowed access to medical care had not received attention.

“As I speak to you, both the IPO handling the case and the DPO of the Police Division are nowhere to be found. And the suspect’s legs are all swollen now because of the several beatings he received at the Airport. He is critically sick right now.

“All I am asking for is that he should at least be taken to the police clinic.

“I have also made efforts to reach the Force PRO but he did not take my calls,” he added of the anti-Tinubu man thrown out of the Ibom Air flight.
