A Nigerian said on social media that “Nigerians held the Dutch KLM flight to a standstill demanding that a fellow Nigeria brought in the plane for deportation back home be taken off the plane or the plane was going nowhere. What was this man's crime? He had no documents and so he was chained like an animal.”
“When would our government start demanding her citizens be treated like human beings? And my fellow Nigerians you see what unity brings.”
“Let us start uniting and stand up together and say enough is enough," a passenger said.
The Nigerians were flying from Amsterdam to Lagos.
