There was mild drama at the Lagos international airport recently as a man caught a staff of the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria trying to sneak drugs into his luggage.
It was gathered that the victim was set to travel out of the country and the aiport worker tried to use him to smuggle drugs to somebody overseas.
The man who caught the official decided to raise an alarm and informed a popular blog, Sabiradio of the development after he discovered what the official was doing with his bags.
A video making the rounds on social media captures the moment the victim, other airport workers and a group of bystanders were interrogating the suspect.
The man whose luggage was to be used to smuggle the drugs abroad landed the FAAN staff a hot slap while he was explaining that someone paid him to find a way to send the drugs to someone aboad.
He insisted that the airport worker must tell him the content of the drug and who paid him to set him up to be arrested for trafficking.
Being thankful that the staff was apprehended on time, the traveler said; “Either it is there usual operation to set people up but no them jam their match today ..As I begin razz the whole airport them know say person de smh…
