Teenager Arrested In The Tyre Compartment Of A Plane At Lagos Airport by amzee(m): 8:22am On Feb 02, 2015
There was an
incident of security breach at the
private general aviation
terminal, Execujet, on Sunday,
when a teenager, Samuel
Ogundeyi, suspected to be a
stowaway was arrested in the
tyre compartment of an aircraft,
Punch reports. The aircraft was
parked in the hangar of Execujet
terminal of Murtala Muhammed
International Airport Lagos. A
reliable source within the private
terminal, who refused to have
his name in print, said the
teenager was discovered at
about 12 noon when pilots of
the aircraft marked M-MYNA,
were carrying out a routine
inspection on the aircraft before
starting the engine. The
commanding pilot of the aircraft
was said to have detected the
boy in the tyre compartment of
the aircraft. The suspect also
had in his possession two
handsets without sim cards
which he claimed were his.
In his confessional statement,
the suspect claimed he had
entered the hangar through the
facility of the Headquarters, Air
Defence Corps of the Nigerian Air
Force located next to the
Presidential/ VIP Lounge in the
airport, on Saturday night with
the help of a person he identified
only as “a brother.”
The boy, who spoke in Yoruba
and pidgin English languages,
said he was able to cross the
L18 runway over to ExecuJet
facility located in the
international wing of the airport,
a distance of about one
kilometre, at night when he
noticed there was no flight
landing or taking off on the
runway.
The aircraft operated by Tag
Aviation was said to have flown
in a former Minister of
Petroleum, Chief Dan Etete, into
Lagos airport on Saturday night
and parked at the private
hangar, where it was expected
to take off on Sunday afternoon
before the incident happened.
All efforts by our correspondent
to get the spokespersons for the
Nigerian Air Force, Federal
Airports Authority of Nigeria to
comment on the incident proved
abortive as calls made to their
mobile telephones were not
going through

Zero security in our Airport. Imagine with a bomb, damages will be uncountable. In western world, the chief security will resign. That can't happen here. Better teach this boy a lesson and other will learn.
