Wrongful deportation: Egypt Air admits error, to compensate Nigerian passenger

It seems that after having been summoned by the Nigerian Foreign Ministry, Mr. Ashraf Salama the Egyptian Ambassador to Nigeria successfully managed to vent the steam which he had previously received from Mrs. Viola Onwuliri, the Nigerian Minster of Foreign Affairs. He informed the officials of Egyptian Ministry of Civil Aviation in Cairo about the extreme seriousness of the issue of mistreating the Nigerian teenager when he was traveling on board of EgyptAir.
Well done Mrs. Viola Onwuliri!
