Nollywood actress Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde has chastised Turkish Airlinesfor allegedly discriminatory practices, including not showing any Nigerian films during her 40-hour journey.

The actress charged that the airline was discriminatory towards passengers from Africa.

Omotola claimed in an Instagram post on Wednesday, November 22, that only movies from Turkey, Asia, Bollywood, Hollywood, and the Middle East were screened during her lengthy travel.

Expressing her disappointment she wrote: “Dear @turkisharlines, like many other Foreign companies you might be discriminating against African Destinations and Travelers and that needs to stop.

“The Obvious Lack of details or Respect shown towards African paying customers spilled to on ground staff relationship.

“As if my 40hrs Long flight was not enough, an unexplained hop in Uganda that wasn’t in my booking almost ran me nuts.

“All Movies from Turkey, Asia, Bollywood,
Middle East and of course, Hollywood onboard. Not one Nollywood Movie!

“African Travelers Sometimes pay higher fees to other parts of the globe, so I wonder; Why Blatant Disrespect and Discrimination?”
