Controversial Nigerian singer, Naira Marley, has called out Turkish Airlines over what is described as “racial treatment”.
In a post on his Twitter page on Sunday, the musician described the company — which is the national flag carrier airline of Turkey — and its staff as “racists”.
The ‘Soapy’ crooner also claimed that he has video evidence and witnesses to substantiate his claim — although he is yet to release any of them.
“Turkish Airlines all your staffs are racists and I have video evidence and witnesses. I’m not mad anymore though. We gonna teach you all how to love. I’m colour blind by the way,” he wrote.
It is not immediately clear what informed the singer’s post which has already garnered nearly 11,000 likes and 1,400 retweets as of the time this report was filed.
The airline has not replied to the singer’s comment yet.
This is not the first time Marley, whose real name is Azeez Fashola, would engage in a face-off with an airline.
In June, the singer had partaken in a heated exchange with Executive Jets Services Limited after the aviation company flew him from Lagos to Abuja for an event despite the federal government’s COVID-19 restrictions at that time.
