He is a US citizen too! Why is that part underplayed? Guess the case will be different if he won a laurel!

tpia@:

i still fail to see why the media is shouting everywhere - must be a slow news day or they're trying to do something more sinister.

Somebody boarded a plane with expired boarding passes and they're ignoring whoever let him through (i dont care whatever excuse they have for that), and they're acting like dumbos?
Abeg!!!!Who has their time.

What exactly is the crime now! [b]Is it the stealing or the illegal passes?[/b]If na the passes, to me it's no big deal! Na security dull themselves abeg!

It's a normal everyday thing at Lagos local airport!

You are even a bigger fool, he is a criminal , he was found with 10 stolen boarding passes, that is enough to shame you, those stolen boarding pass belongs to an innocent pple, why would your Nigerian brother go about nicking them? I don't care whether other white or red pple have done the same b4, i'm worried about Nigeria cos i will be treated as one and NOT British or American

Doris-dey:

These "yorobo" people self! almost making the news for the wrong reasons.Yesterday,it was one silly Yorubas that murdered his wife,and today,it is another frustrated Yoruba that is painting the Nigeria name black in far away America.Just visit any European country from London to Brussel to Zurich to Paris etc and see all the lazy and jobless Yorubas duplicating and selling peoples passports and other ID.
Then come back home and see their criminal leaders like OBJ,Tinumbu,Bode George and Bankole milking Nigeria dry.Yoruba PEOLE HABA!!!

Ekiti1:

You just dont get it. Nobody is saying what he did is right. For once use your brain and think; If he had been a citizen of Britain would this news make headlines?
And calling him my Nigerian brother, is he is  also not your Nigerian brother? we have a saying: "Orisiri omo lo wa ni le alagbara" your people have their own bad eggs. No?

The point u are missing here is that he stole those boarding passes, you don't see anything wrong with that? Yes the security at the airport was poor but he was caught with 10more passes which doesn't belong to him.

tpia@:

if he had an expired boarding pass and fake id or whatever, then he should have been caught before getting on the plane.

end of.

neither does any of this warrant the level of publicity being dished out by the media.

justwise:

[/b]

It does warrant this level of publicity cos it exposes the carelessness of USA airport security set-up and calls for concern for anybody who has faith in USA airport security.

tpia@:

then they should focus on airport security and stop broadcasting irrelevancies.

tpia@:

^^they need to tone down on his ethnicity unless another thing dey their matter.

tpia@:

^^and the media need to stop crying wolf while protecting actual terrorists who fly freely with or without their real boarding passes, in any country of their choice.

careytommy:

why all d fuss and misleading title? the guy is american(born and bred)
BTW pls anybody who knows seun osewa (mr nairaland) should pls inform him kindly reachout to saharareporters to explain as they claim he and noibi are partners

justwise:

Media is not crying wolf, they are raising an issue that could affect everyone that uses airport or not. Making this issue public will help the airport security team be extra careful next time. It benefits everybody, not just Americans.
