Nigerian Woman Stranded in Egypt After Passport Seizure by EgyptAir
A 64-year-old Nigerian woman, Mrs. Uzoma Chinyere Ndubuisi, finds herself stranded at Cairo International Airport after her passport was allegedly confiscated by EgyptAir. The incident occurred during her transit to the United Kingdom, leaving her in distress and sparking outrage from her family.
The Ordeal
Mrs. Ndubuisi was traveling to the UK but became stuck in Egypt when her passport was reportedly taken for immigration clearance and not returned for over three hours. Speaking about her experience, she shared that she waited helplessly at the airport without any support or assistance from the airline.
Despite being aware of her plight, EgyptAir allegedly failed to provide promised accommodations. She and other affected passengers were left without proper access to food, water, or rest.
Missed Connecting Flight
The situation worsened when Mrs. Ndubuisi missed her connecting flight to Manchester, scheduled for 8:55 AM. Delayed transportation to the airport terminal caused her to arrive after the flight had already departed.
Family’s Outcry
Her son, Obinna Okali, has filed a formal petition against EgyptAir, accusing the airline of negligence and lack of compassion. In his statement, he described the unhelpful behavior of the staff and highlighted the physical and emotional toll on his mother.
“The actions of EgyptAir staff directly led to my mother missing her flight. Yet, they have shown no empathy or concern for her welfare,” Okali said.
He demanded immediate action from EgyptAir, including rebooking his mother on the next available flight to Manchester and compensation for the distress she endured. He also warned of holding the airline accountable should anything happen to his mother during this ordeal.
Awaiting EgyptAir’s Response
As of now, EgyptAir has not issued a public statement regarding the allegations or addressed the concerns raised by Mrs. Ndubuisi’s family.
This situation highlights the importance of traveler rights and airline accountability in ensuring a safe and stress-free journey for passengers.
