He gave this charge in a statement released on his X account on Friday.
Festus Keyamo, the Nigerian Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development has reacted to the clash between Air Peace and the Senator representing Edo North, Adams Oshiomhole.
He has now ordered a probe.
This was made public in a statement released on his X account on Friday.
This comes after Air Peace and Oshiomhole engaged in a war of words following an incident on Wednesday morning at Murtala Muhammed Airport Terminal 1, Zulu Hall.
Air Peace had accused Oshiomhole of violence and disruption of a flight on Wednesday.
However, Oshiomhole denied Air Peace’s claim, alleging that the airline prevented him and others from boarding despite completing online check-in.
Oshiomhole further accused Air Peace of extortion and other unwholesome practices.
But Air Peace denied Oshiomhole’s allegation.
He also urged parties to exercise restraint in their public utterances regarding the incident.
“In the wake of the incident at the Lagos Airport last Wednesday involving AIRPEACE Airline and His Excellency, Senator Adams Oshiomhole, I have been in direct contact with both parties since that morning,” Keyamo said.
“Whilst appealing to both sides to halt the public accusations and counter-accusations, I am further directing the relevant aviation agencies to thoroughly look into the issue, collect all available evidence, and revert to my office so we can deal with the issue in such a way as to guide future conduct in similar situations.”
