A Federal High Court in Lagos has ordered Virgin Nigeria Airways to pay N10m as damages to a passenger, Mrs Rosemary PJ-Akpan, for breach of contract.

Justice Okon Abang in his judgment awarded the money in favour of the plaintiff for the humiliation and embarrassment caused her when the airline’s officials stopped her from flying with her daughter to the United Kingdom in 2007.

The judge held that the plaintiff, who had sued the airline as next-best-friend to her daughter, Miss Imaobong PJ-Akpan, was embarrassed at the airport and subjected to trauma by the airline.

Imaobong was then eight years old.
