AMAA's Pregnant Foreign Guest Slapped at Port Harcourt Airport.

Africa's Most Prestigous Awards AMMA held last weekend and it was a parade of Celebrities from all over the world.

The much publicized award show ended well.....well almost until the drama that unfolded at the aiport  when one female airport security service officer slapped a foreign guest who looked about five months .pregnant



In defence, her husband landed a return slap on the face of the the Nigerian airport security service officer and the security operatives around roughened up the man who had stood up for his wife.
He was later seen with a plaster on his neck!

The pregnant lady was supposedly making stress over the delayed flight because she was scarred they would Miss their Delta Airline connecting flight from Lagos.

Veteran filmmaker Chief Eddie Ugbomah it was who helped to resolve the matter that would have degenerated into a diplomatic fiasco for Nigeria.
People kept apologizing to the aggrieved husband of the assaulted young woman who said He said he is British.

The lady who raised up her hand to slap another fellow pregnant woman needs to be sent on immediate leave,If she cannot handle customers stress,then she should stay home and watch Tv.


AMAA CEO, Peace Anyiam-Osigwe should employ more a competent professional management staff to handle the protocol of travel and accommodation for all the invited guests and drop the grossly incompetent handy men surrounding her, because they are not trained for such responsibility. Even the manager of one of the hotels where guests were lodged in Yenagoa complained that the hotel had not been paid for the accommodation of 20 guests of AMAA.

The management of AMAA blamed the new governor of Bayelsa State, Hon. Henry Seriake Dickson for causing the problems encountered by their guests, BUT IT WAS ACTUALLY THE LOCAL ORGANISING COMMITTEE that is to blame .they failed to provide transportation and accommodation for all the invited local and international guests until the late hours of Friday April 19, a day to the event held on Saturday April 20.

Some guests had no water in their hotel rooms. And others had to share their rooms with cockroaches, mosquitoes and other insects.


Tourists cannot go to where there are no good hotels, no good roads and not even an airport. So, until these priorities are addressed. the Africa Movie Academy Awards (AMAA) cannot attract local and international tourists to Bayelsa and this state which is the most underdeveloped of all oil producing states in the Niger Delta is a wrong location for such an international prestigious celebrity event to host local and international movie stars and other celebrated entertainers. Even the over $3million raised at the AMAA fund raising banquet in Abuja will not be enough to attract them. Many of them were overheard murmuring that they would not even return for the next AMAA until there is an international airport and good hotels in Yenagoa, the host city.


Heres hoping the assaulted couple do not sue.
