There was a mild drama yesterday at the Murtala Muhammed Airport in Lagos, as a Nigerian woman was caught trying to sneak into a United State-bound airplane, after beating security operatives including that of the Federal Airport Authority of Nigeria, FAAN and Nigeria Immigration Service at the airport.
Reports say the woman evaded various security agents from the main entrance of the departure wing of the airport before she was eventually apprehended at the foot of the plane.
“The passenger beat all the airport securities to the boarding gate before she was caught at the foot of the airplane. She had no visa, traveling passport and boarding pass.,” a source told Sahara Reporters.
It was gathered that the woman is currently being confined to a restricted area within the airport known as “tango city”.
Tango city is a place where unruly persons are detained within the terminal before being transferred to a police station for further a possible interrogation.
“The woman is still with us at the tango city. She has availed to us some useful information we would use in contacting her family”.
