Kemi, Taiwo & Yasmin, Second Airline refuses to carry them

Virgin Nigeria emphatically refused to carry the family after a storm of emails/faxes; not only refused to carry them last Tuesday 8th July but have said they won't carry them in the future. A British Airways crew refused to carry them on the Tuesday 1st July.

Family are still in Yarl's Wood and have lodged a bail application.

Email from Virgin Nigeria to a protestor
"Thank you for your email regarding Kemi Ayinde.
I just wanted to clarify that Kemi will not be deported tomorrow on a Virgin Nigeria flight. Virgin Nigeria was approached but refused to carry her both now or in the future. It seems the story was printed without consulting Virgin Unite or Virgin Nigeria so we were not able to set the record straight."
Warm regards,
Joni Watson, Business Mobilisation Manager, www.virginunite.com

In another response Virgin Nigeria denied ever operating a removal flight:

"It is pertinent to mention that we do not tolerate the inhumane treatment of any person on board any of our flights as we ensure that all our passengers are treated with dignity and respect firmly recognizing that Asylum Seekers are not criminals but law abiding persons found to have no right or entitlement to remain in that particular country. Furthermore, Virgin Nigeria does not make any special profit from these operations and has never operated a removal flight before."
Yours faithfully,
For: Virgin Nigeria Airways Ltd.
Stella Allen, Customer Relations Executive
