Pastor David Ibiyeomie Recounts How His Son Cried After Being Moved To Economy class On Flight

Pastor David Ibiyeomie, founder of Salvation Ministries, has recounted how his son, David Jnr, cried after discovering that he would be travelling in economy class instead of business class during a trip to Minnesota, United States.

Ibiyeomie shared the experience while preaching, explaining that his son had become accustomed to travelling in business class from an early age. He said the boy had never flown economy class until an occasion when his wife accompanied him on a trip to Minnesota, but they could not secure business-class tickets.

According to the pastor, his wife and son had to settle for economy-class seats, a development that left the boy uncomfortable during the flight.

He explained that his son started crying heavily after realising that they were seated in a different section of the aircraft.

“When she asked him what was wrong, he said, ‘Because daddy is not here, you’re taking me to the back,’” Ibiyeomie recounted.

He added that his wife tried to explain that there were no business-class tickets available, but the boy remained unhappy with the arrangement.

The pastor said his son further complained, “This is where I used to sit. They are taking me to the back.”
