Ossai Ovie Success, the senior special asistant on media to Sheriff Oborevwori, Delta state governor, has clarified that his offer to Comfort Emmanson, the passenger who was accused of assaulting airline officials on an Ibom Air flight, "is personal".

Legit.ng reports that Success made this clarification via his known X (formerly Twitter) handle on Sunday, August 17.

Recall that on Wednesday, August 13, Success announced a package for Emmanson, after she regained freedom, following her detention in the Kirikiri prison in Lagos.

In posts across his known social media pages, Success said he had secured a job in Delta state for Emmanson with a monthly salary of N500,000.

The governor’s aide also promised to bankroll an all-expenses-paid trip to the state, including flight tickets, a five-star hotel stay, guided tours, and a ticket to the Delta Social Media Summit slated for Thursday, August 28, in Asaba.

According to him, the offer is meant to help Emmanson “unwind” after her prison ordeal.

However, on Sunday, August 17, Success said he decided to offer Comfort assistance "to help her reintegrate into society".

He tweeted: "Considering the trauma she experienced, which could lead to depression or suicidal thoughts, I felt compelled to act.

"She's shown remorse, and I believe it's time to support her in her journey towards rehabilitation.

"That was also the reason i offered her ticket to attend the 3rd Edition of the Delta Social Media Summit Coming Up August 28 at the Maryam Babangida Leisure park in Asaba.

"My intention is to promote kindness and rehabilitation, not to condone unruly behaviour.

"In Delta state, we prioritise helping those in need, regardless of their background, because we recognise our shared humanity as Nigerians. I'm sorry if my kind gesture has been misconstrued as it now appears."

My Offer To Comfort is personal, Not From Delta State Government

I'd like to clarify that my offer to Comfort Emmanson is a personal gesture, not affiliated with the Delta State government.

As someone who believes in showing love and support to those in need.
