The Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) has called for urgent details following a shocking mid-flight fight involving social media personalities VeryDarkMan (VDM) and Mr Jollof.
The incident, which occurred on Monday, was captured in a video showing the two men grappling in the airplane aisle as fellow passengers tried to intervene.
Reacting to the footage, NCAA’s Director of Public Affairs and Consumer Protection, Michael Achimugu, took to X, quoting one of the clips and writing, “If you are kind enough to provide the name of the airline in whose aircraft this incident occurred, and the date, it would help investigations.”
The cause of the altercation is still unclear. Reports say the fight started before take-off, but neither the airline nor the passengers involved have released official statements.
VDM and Mr Jollof have a long-standing online feud. In the past, VDM publicly accused Mr Jollof and his wife of defamation, claiming his home address was leaked online and forcing him to stay in a hotel for safety reasons. In October 2024, Mr Jollof’s wife filed a N500 million defamation lawsuit against VDM, demanding a public apology across media platforms.
The tension escalated further after VDM dragged the comedian’s wife into their drama, alleging that she “sleeps with Yahoo boys,” leading to a heated exchange between the two online.
