The wave of terror attacks in Nigeria on Tuesday took a new turn as a suicide bomber attempted to blow up an Arik Air plane flying from Maiduguri to Abuja.

A suspected member of the Boko Haram sect who had boarded in Maiduguri, Borno State got up midair and told all the passengers to say their last prayers. As he brought out the explosive device, he disclosed that his main targets were the white people in the aircraft.

The explosive device however failed to detonate before the plane landed in Abuja. Police bomb experts moved in and the terrorist was arrested when the plane touched down in Abuja.

The attempt on the airline has shown the dynamism of the dreaded Islamist sect. Meanwhile, the Joint Task Force had earlier hinted that the sect has plans to launch attacks on Sallah day.

we need to improve security in the airport o...thank God for his grace...

Where else do we run for safety . O my country , now we would be mourning
But this story get as e be, do white men still go to Borno state, where even Jonathan fear to go

Thank God the danger is averted,we should all be security conscious to defeat this enemy called Boko Haram,we must watch each other's back..

Abeg any other source? This is not funny. Did the passengers at least touch him up a little? Because if that was me in that plane I don't know if I wouldn't have joined in. Can you imagine? This is a very dangerous precedence o

Just another Muttalab failed mission! Did he also put the bomb in his panties? God don catch am for this one! Awon Oloriburuku!

Are Terrorists so FOOLISH??

When will all these scavengers repent ?

Honestly speaking, Maiduguri he was flying from practises sharia. If they decide to do public flogging I wouldn't mind watching him flogged properly, I mean can you imagine? I am just putting myself in the shoes of the people on that plane and I am quite outraged to be frank! What did innocent passengers do to boko haram? NASS should summon the executive and demand updates to this so called 'war on terror' because honestly speaking the idea that we have even started considering bombing internal flights is very worrying. What has happened with all the people that have or were meant to have been arrested? Does governors and so called senators that were reported to be entangled in the whole brouhaha. . .

it so sad dat despite the efforts recorded and level of success achieved by security agencies, other agencies are not doing same atleast to do contribute their little quota..if the airport security and authority carried out their duties judiciously, this wud hav bin averted...may God continue to help us.

Number 72

Heard from someone who was on that flight that the 'aboki' decided to pray on board and started chanting... So of course, people felt he wanted to blow the plane off...
The crew alerted security and the man was arrested after landing in Abuja... He didnt have any bomb on him.

What amuses me really is the fact that passengers on board were shouting Jesus, Jesus... and didnt bother to overpower the so called 'terrorist'

mike404: Number 72

what about number 72?
