The management of Air Peace has debunked what it called “false and malicious report” of the crash of its aircraft in Western Sahara.
The airline in a statement by Dr Ejike Ndiulo, Head of Corporate Communications, denounced what it referred to as the author’s history of “false and alarming information about non-existent tragic incidents.”
The statement read:
False and Malicious Report of Air Peace Plane Crash.
Our attention has been drawn to multiple social media posts circulating false and malicious information that an Air Peace aircraft has crashed in the Western Sahara region, resulting in fatalities, including the purported death of a prominent individual.
We categorically state that this information is FALSE and MALICIOUS.
This is a deliberate attempt to spread misinformation and tarnish the impeccable safety record of Air Peace.
It is important to note that the author of this post has a history of disseminating false and alarming information about non-existent tragic incidents.
The circulating images accompanying these false reports are clearly AI-generated and do not reflect any real incident.
We urge the public to disregard this malicious disinformation and rely on official channels for accurate information regarding Air Peace operations.
Air Peace remains committed to the highest safety standards and the well-being of our passengers and crew. Safety is not just a priority but a fundamental precondition for all our activities.
