Without details, it's hard to place the blame. However, if a company policy discriminates against people living with disadvantages, then it's not a fair policy n should be revised. Her actions will draw attention to dis disgrace of a policy.

Imagine it was ur relative at d receiving end of such!

The policy is for their own safety, its not wickedness. My relative who cannot walk would not be allowed to travel alone without an Assistance ...

If she was with someone to carry her around, then they would have allowed her

That's one kind of crazy policy which is drawing back the whole of Africa.
In the developed countries, physically challenge persons are treated with utter most priority. No wonder we call them developed countries.

D developed countries have provision for wheelchair in their planes bro, Not their policy

I don't think the Airline deserved to be blamed they have a policy in place and they are adhering to it, not in Nigeria where they can maneuver anything....
Sorry ma'am, always Read terms n conditions before clicking I AGREE

Its a stupid policy

I live in a developed country and that is what we call discrimination

A handicap person should be treated equally

People protest for things like this

Scan the wheelchair, when she is on board, make sure that one of the crew secure it in their private cabin and once they have landed, give her back her wheel chair... Why must Ghana always beef Nigeria?
Re: Nigerian Woman Prevented From Boarding A Plane In Ghana (photo) by DuchessLily(f): 3:47pm On Jun 04, 2015
Bants:

Most planes in our African countries do not have facilities or spaces for wheel chair. She was/is supposed to be with someone to assist her in a case like this. Forcing her wheelchair into d plane or them carrying her to board the plane is not safe for her, cos how will she move around freely or for example, go without someone to assist her to d rest room onboard? And God 4bid, if something happens, how would she manage?

Our problem is that we don't read policy statements well b4 we click on 'I accept'

I blame the lady's agent. There's what we call SSR.. special service request. Before making reservation or during reservation. You are expected to send an SSR to your intending carrier to inform them of the condition and type of passenger (in a case where your client needs special services) you are making seat reservation for, and you are expected to get a confirmation from the airline before the take off date. If you don't then don't make final booking.

That company policy is not physically challenged friendly and should be reviewed.
It's not acceptable and terrible.

Yeah it is..

But she would have avoided it by reading and understanding their policy statement b4 accepting. All the airlines can't just refuse her money because she is handicapped or a Nigerian. They r in business for money , ain't they? grin

it's so sad! who else should be granted priority if not the physically challenged?

Pele Madam Essien, God will help them realise their error as the table turns.

Afterall, it's company policy they say.....

In as much as it's sad to see stuff like this happen I think she should come clean and tell us:
His she got to Ghana(if it was by road or air). There are 3 sides to every story.

Sad but I agree with you. Anyone wonder the situation in times of emergency? How would she run towards the Emergency Exits? Won't she be a source of obstacle to fleeing passengers? Won't she be crushed? Its sad though undecided

Discrimination against people with disabilities. One of the realities of discrimination people with disabilities face in this part of the world. Quite very sad.

Thanx dear sis.

Its so sad... But we can't blame them, cos they can't endanger her life and dat of their other clients onboard same flight with her because they wanna be fair

She could look for a plane with wheelchair space or make arrangement with a passenger to assist her
