By ‘Leke Yusuf
A presenter with Television Continental (TVC), Obiajulu Ugboh; has cried out over news making rounds on social media that the unidentified man who caused a scene on an Ibom Air flight from Abuja to Lagos, on Friday evening, is her husband.
The man had caused a stir on Friday as he was evacuated from an Ibom Air flight over alleged threats against Nigeria’s president-elect, Bola Tinubu
“You all are sitting here, and Tinubu is about to be sworn in as President, Tinubu must never be sworn in. He must never be President,” he said.
In a video making the rounds on social media, the man stood in between the passengers’ seat in the middle of the aircraft and could be heard threatening that Bola Tinubu must not be sworn in as Nigerian president next month.
“You all are sitting here, and Tinubu is about to be sworn in as President. Tinubu must never be sworn in. He must never be President,” he said.
“I am a PhD holder in law and I’ll keep saying what I am saying.”
His conduct and utterances attracted the attention of other passengers aboard the flight, while some other passengers asked him go to court.
In a viral social media post, there was allegation that the ‘Plane Man’ is Obiajulu’s husband.
Obiajulu in a post on her Instagram page, wrote, “How can you look at these two pictures and call them the same person!
“How do you guys send out fake news like this without proper investigation?
