Several passengers aboard United Airlines flight UA613 were injured when the aircraft made an emergency return to Lagos.
The flight, en route to Washington with 245 passengers, eight flight attendants, and three pilots, turned back to Murtala Muhammed International Airport (MMIA) while flying over the Ivory Coast airspace.
The plane reportedly lost pressure and experienced a sudden descent, which led to injuries among several passengers and crew members.
The incident was however blamed on technical issues.
“Flight UA613 from Lagos to Washington D.C. returned to Lagos to address a technical issue. After landing safely, the aircraft was met by first responders to address reports of minor injuries to several passengers and crew,” the airline told Vanguard
