VIDEO: Nigerians protest maltreatment of deportee on KLM flight

Nigerians on board a KLM flight threatened to prevent the plane from taking off after they spotted another Nigerian, who was being deported, in chains.

A video of the incident, showed the passengers protesting what they described as the maltreatment of the Nigerian.

They refused to allow the Dutch airline plane to take off unless the Nigerian deportee is unchained and allowed to travel with dignity.

It is, however, unclear when the video was shot or where the incident occurred.

See video below:

Nigerians held a Dutch #KLM flight to a standstill demanding that a fellow Nigerian brought in the plane for deportation chained hands and all be taken off the plane or the plane was going nowhere. What was his crime? He had no documents and so he was chained like an animal. When would our government start demanding her citizens be treated like human beings! And my fellow Nigerians you see what unity brings;let us start uniting and stand up together and say enough is enough! #Man in the mirror # standing for basic human rights and good leadership.
