A 72-year-old male passenger died on an Air Peace Flight
P47182 from Calabar to Abuja Flight P47182 on Friday.
The deceased allegedly had a case of paraplegia due to
spinal injury since 2019 was travelling for medical check-up in Abuja.
He became very sick mid-flight and upon arrival at the
Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja, Port Health official checked him
and confirmed that he was dead.
The incident was confirmed by Air Peace’s spokesman, Stanley
Olise, who insisted the deceased was certified fit to fly.
“The passenger was certified fit to fly by Port Health
officials in Calabar before boarding our aircraft; but the passenger developed
a medical condition in-flight.
“On arrival at the
Nnamdi Azikiwe Airport Abuja, we urgently notified the Port Health officials
who confirmed the death and took the remains of the passenger to the hospital
for the necessary protocols. Air Peace has thoroughly decontaminated its
aircraft and Port Health is on top of the situation,” Olise said.
