Bi-Courtney Aviation Services Limited, operators of the Murtala Muhammed Airport 2 (MMA2), Lagos, on Tuesday, announced that a female passenger of IRS Airlines slumped at the departure terminal of the airport.
The passenger, Chinyere Njebu, who died while being transported to hospital by Zenith Medicals, an ambulance therapeutic service company stationed at the terminal, was said to have been drinking with an unidentified man at the Barcellos eatery in the departure terminal. Chukwudum Ofomata, the media representative for Bi-Courtney, said that the incident happened on Monday at about 12noon, adding that Ms Njebu was supposed to catch a flight for Abuja before her demise.
Staff of the eatery confirmed that the deceased bought two cans of stout and was drinking with a man, who could not be found by security operatives at the airport after the incident. “She bought two cans of stout and was drinking it with this guy who we won’t be able to identify before she suddenly slumped,” said Atoyebi Taofeek, a supervisor for Barcellos. “Airport officials rushed her in a stretcher and she was taken to a hospital by the Zenith ambulance. But after the doctor diagnosed her, he said that she had traits of hypertension and her blood sugar level was tested to be a little unusual.”
