Ghanaian Comedienne, Afia Schwarzenegger (Valentina Nana Agyeiwa) has sued KLM Royal Dutch Airlines following a viral video purporting that she was removed from a flight for boarding while intoxicated.
According to a copy of the Writ of Summons issued to the Airline, Afia is suing the company for the following;
Refund of the sum of EUR2,934.18 being the cost of Plaintiff’s elite ticket.
She also is asking to be paid the sum of USD4,600.00 or its cedi equivalent being the cost of Plaintiff’s two (2) damaged bags.
She further demands the sum of GH48,000 being the amount paid to Plaintiff to perform at a show in Ghana and compensation for TWO hundred thousand Euros.
According to sources, the comedienne was removed from the plane after querying a flight attendant in the business class cabin for not assisting her to put her luggage in the overhead compartment. She made a complaint to the ground staff when she was removed from the flight and they put her in a hotel and arranged for a new flight for her, and wrote an apology letter to her.
However, the airline failed to respond to reports in the media that she was removed from the flight for being drunk and for bad behavior.
