Update On Bomb Scare At NAMA
Earlier on, we brought you
a report of the arrest of a man suspected to be a member of the Boko Haram terrorist
group; and we also promised to bring you more reports.
According to latest reports
reaching us, the man, who is a handicap was arrested by security operatives and
handed over to the Airport Police headquarters along the Ikeja- Airport road.
While reacting to the incidence, Mr Supo Atobatele, General Manager, Public
Affairs, Nigerian Airspace Management Authority, NAMA, revealed how
the suspect was caught. Continue reading:
“The attention of the Nigerian
Airspace Management Agency ,NAMA, has been drawn to insinuations that a
suspected suicide bomber was arrested at one of the agency’s facilities at the
Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos on Monday.
“The basic truth however, is that
the said suspect was on the ground making phone calls along the airport road
close to CENTREX, an annex office of NAMA when the agency’s security personnel
accosted him and questioned his presence.”
“His incoherent explanation
exposed him to the security personnel who later found on him some devices
suspected to be explosives. He was subsequently handed over to the Airport
Police Command for further investigation.”
