In a shocking incident at an airport, a man slapped a Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) staff member, raising an alarm after discovering an attempt to “smuggle drugs” into his luggage. A viral video circulating online captures the intense confrontation between the man and the FAAN official.
In the video, the man is clearly seen questioning the FAAN staff member about the attempted smuggling, expressing his disbelief at the audacious act. He emphasizes that had he not caught the staff member in the act, no one would have believed his innocence.
The man, visibly upset, vocalizes his concerns in the video, suggesting that such incidents might be part of the usual operations at the airport to set people up. He asserts, “Either it is their usual operation to set people up, but no, they jam their match today.” He continues to express his frustration, “As I begin razz the whole airport, them know say person de smh.”
The man highlights the potential consequences he could have faced if he hadn’t uncovered the smuggling attempt. He vividly describes how his life could have taken a drastic turn, with his picture plastered everywhere by the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) for allegedly smuggling drugs at the international airport.
The man raises awareness about the risks innocent people face daily due to such methods employed by airport authorities. He urges caution, stating, “Innocent people are jailed daily through their methods, but they jam their match today.” Interestingly, he notes that NDLEA personnel present during the incident were not acting shocked or surprised, suggesting a lack of surprise on their part.
