There was fracas Monday at the international
terminal wing of the Murtala Muhammed Airport, Lagos when two airmen in charge
of traffic control at the departure section of the terminal beat a Federal
Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) staff to coma. It was learnt that
the FAAN staff, Mohammed Shuaibu who works at the protocol and passages of the
agency told his friend to come and pick him at the airport, but when he arrived
the airmen moved to remove the plate numbers of his car for parking longer
than necessary. But at that moment Shuaibu came in and begged the Nigerian Air
Force personnel not to take away the plate numbers. According to an eye witness account, Shuaibu who
was wearing FAAN staff uniform introduced himself and showed his identity card
but an argument ensued and there was confrontation and the airmen descended on
him.
Shuaibu was beaten by
the airmen until he collapsed with blood oozing from his nostrils and he began
to lose his breath as his heart beat slowed, sources said.
