Veteran Nollywood actress Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde has condemned Turkish Airlines for allegedly failing to show any Nigerian movie during her 40-hour flight.
She accused the airline of “blatant disrespect” and “discrimination” against African travelers who have paid higher fees, yet their expectations were not met while using the services of the airline.
The talented actress expressed her disappointment on her Instagram page yesterday when she wrote that discrimination against the black race should not be condoned.
“Dear @turkishairlines, 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?”
