A Nigerian lady has cried out after her husband was allegedly assaulted by airport security in Akure over a fine.
According to @Atolani8, the incident occurred shortly after her husband who was waiting for her at Akure airport came out and saw that his car was ”chained.”
She said her husband approached some security officers at airport so they can pay fine and leave, but they were using them to “catch cruise”. The Twitter user revealed that after her husband realized that the chain was just there without lock, he removed it and was about to leave when the officers sent a signal to their colleagues stationed at the main entrance who then prevented them from leaving.
@Atolani8 said they were asked to go back but when they approached the officers, they started allegedly abusing her husband and told him he had no manners. She said her husband told them it’s wrong to use such words and that was when they decided to lock him up in their guard room. She said after her husband resisted their attempt to lock him in a guard room, they allegedly attacked him sticks, metal and other sharp objects.
She tweeted;
I landed from lagos to Akure on 30th of may 2022, my husband was already waiting for me at Akure airport. He parked his car at the park only for him to get back there and found out his car was chained. He asked for those in charge so we could pay the fine and leave
He met with some of the securities but none of them responded, they were using us to catch cruise. He realised the chain was just there without lock so he removed and we were about to leave when all their officers started coming out.
They sent a signal to the securities at the main entrance, we were asked to go back and pay the fine which we had already requested for but was ignored, we turned back and went to meet those first set of security. They started abusing my husband in my presence.
One of them said he doesn’t have manners, my husband told them it’s wrong to use such words, they decided to lock him up in their guard room. He resisted and was seriously beaten( sticks, metal and other sharp objects).
