The incident took place at the MMA1 at about 9:10 am on Friday.

Stanley Olisa, Air_Peace spokesman, in a statement said: “This morning, at exactly 9:10 at the MMA1 Lagos, an Owerri-bound Air Peace aircraft(flight P47252) was taxing towards the threshold for take-off, when a man, in his twenties, emerged from the bush along the runway and tried to gain access to the aircraft through the wheel-well.”

He said there was a private jet behind the aircraft and that the pilot in command of the private jet informed the Air Peace pilot in command that a young man obviously in his twenties, was trying to force his way into the aircraft.

Olisa said the security wing of the Federal Airport Authority of Nigeria, FAAN, was alerted and that the man was accosted and whisked away.

He said the suspect was currently in the regulator’s custody and that when interrogated on why he took the action, the man stated that he thought the aircraft was headed overseas.

“We commend FAAN for its timely intervention. The regulator is already investigating the incident. Air Peace remains committed to the safety of its customers and will continue to demonstrate this commitment in all aspects of its operations. At Air Peace, safety is at the heart of what we do,“ he said.

Nawa o! For him mind, he wan komot naija?! Lol you go die there

the struggle is indeed real...

The hustle is real...the story is funny and saddening at the same time

Lol oh jesus I cannot can anymore

Even AIR PEACE BOSS forcefully stole his WEALTH

He thought the airplane is headed overseas. He is more of a human than animal. No human wants to be kept in a zoo. Any means necessary will do.

I don't believe that his lame and stale reason for an excuse... They should transfer that idiot to S.E where he'll be grilled to confess who sent him.

That is an attack abeg, that guy should be treated as a terrorist.

What nonsense, what did Onyema do to them?

Imagine the shock when he lands and sees Welcome to Owerri

They should have left him to go and come back with night bus as punishment
