The situation later escalated to a crisis level as the passenger was forcefully dragged out of the airplane upon landing in Lagos.

While she was being dragged, her clothes were pulled off, exposing her to the general public.

The whole scene was captured in a video and posted on social media without being edited.

Now, a Catholic priest, Revered Father Emmanuel Fada Mentor Ehioma, has raised some questions about the person who recorded the video.

He wondered why the video was posted on social media without being edited to remove the part where Comfort's privacy was exposed.

He said the recorder and poster of the video could be sued by the victim.

His words:

"Ibom Air who recorded that video? Who released it to the internet without editing it and protecting the dignity of that lady? You can be sued too."
