Less than a month after the police paraded three teenagers for
attempting to conceal themselves in an aircraft at the Murtala Mohammed
Airport, Lagos, another attempt was yesterday recorded at the airport.
General Manager, Corporate Communications of the Federal Airports
Authority of Nigeria, FAAN, Mr. Yakubu Dati, declined comment on the
issue, but it was learnt that a teenager was apprehended at the airport
as he attempted to hide in an Allied Air Cargo aircraft that was
preparing to fly out of the airport.
The teenager whose name could not be ascertained at the time of
compiling this report was spotted by airside staff of the Nigerian
Aviation Handling Company (NAHCo). He was apprehended and handed over to
the Aviation Security.
Recall that following the successful stowaway attempt by a teenager,
Daniel Ohikhena in the wheel compartment of an Arik Air flight from
Benin to Lagos last August, there have been other unsuccessful attempts
by other teenagers to unlawfully conceal themselves in airplanes.
