“Those who know me can attest that I am not really a social media person. I am happy I am strong enough to talk now. I am not a troublesome person; I am not a nuisance. I never refused to switch off my phone,” she lamented.

Comfort Emmanson speaks on Ibom Air incident, says ‘I’m traumatised, my body used for stickers’ (video)
Miss Comfort Emmanson, the young woman at the centre of a controversy involving Ibom Air crew, has narrated her side of the story.
In a post on her Instagram account, @soft_commy, Emmanson alleged that a flight hostess, identified as Julian Edwards, forcefully pulled off her frontal wig, cut off her gold jewelry, and damaged her mobile phones.
She said the confrontation began after she struggled to switch off her phone during pre-flight checks and escalated into a physical altercation when they landed in Lagos.
Emmanson recounted that the flight attendant insulted her by calling her a prostitute, blocked her from disembarking, and later attacked her, leaving her bruised and humiliated.
Emmanson lamented that the incident left her traumatised, adding that the circulation of her private images on social media has worsened her distress.
She said, “…I want to first appreciate God Almighty and everyone that stood by me and fought for me when I was in prison. When I came out the love and support I saw, I was not expecting it for a commoner like me. I say God bless you all.
“So, on August 10, I boarded a flight from Uyo to Lagos and the normal procedure was on. The lady Juliana was telling everyone to switch off their phones. When she came to me, I was struggling with my phone and she said I should put off my phone.

“I showed her that one of the phone was bad. The button was bad and she said I can turn it off without the power button. I had two phones and so the man sitting beside me helped me to turn off the other one.
“While she was talking, she said I should go to my settings and to general…I pleaded with her to take the phone off it but she refused saying ‘children nowadays…’
“I asked her to spell general for me but the way she looked at me and the pressure from her, so, I turned to the man who switched off the first one and begged him to help. The man spelt general and I went back to her but she looked at me with bad eye.
“So, I turned to the man again and he helped me switch the second one off. I put both phones where they are supposed to be.
