Comfort Emmanson, Ibom Air passenger who was recently released from custody has said that she needs to undergo some medical treatments in order to be well enough to share her ordeals in the hands of the hostesses who assaulted her.
She however took to her social media to thank her supporters and describe her post-release condition.
In a statement posted on her Instagram page on Wednesday, Emmanson (#soft_commy), said she is still “in pains due to how I was treated” and requires medical attention before she can share her full account of the incident.
The statement comes after a widely publicised dispute between Emmanson and the airline, which reportedly led to her arrest and detention.
While details of the original altercation remain a subject of debate, the passenger’s latest post focuses on the physical and emotional toll of her time in custody.
The full statement from her Instagram page reads, “Thank you so much for the prayers, love and support. I’ve been released from the prison, but I’m still in pains due to how I was treated.
“I just need some rest and medical treatment before I give out my own version of the event. Thank you so much, my lovely friends and supporters. I really appreciate y’all from the bottom of my heart. God bless you all. Thank you, my great God!!!”
