The management of United Nigeria Airways<\/strong><\/a> says a middle-aged man was apprehended and taken for interrogation after he was found on parked aircraft in the early hours of Sunday.<\/p>\n<\/header>\n

\n

Mr Achillus Chud- Uchegbu, the airline\u2019s spokesman said this in a statement on Sunday in Lagos.<\/p>\n

Chud- Uchegbu said that the unidentified man was unconscious and discovered during preflight inspection while the aircraft was now being screened and prepared for service after the alleged stowaway was taken away.<\/p>\n

The spokesman revealed that due to the breach, some flights might be affected as the airline would have to be rescheduled to accommodate the investigation.<\/p>\n

The statement said; \u201cDuring preflight inspection this morning, a stowaway was found in one of our aircraft parked at MMA2 Ikeja.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe middle-aged man, who looked unkempt and is suspected to be unconscious, was arrested and taken in for interrogation.\u201d<\/p>\n

The aircraft last operated Abuja-Lagos at 7.30 p.m. on Sept. 3, and was securely parked at the apron following post flight inspection.<\/p>\n

\u201cFAAN AVSEC and Bicourtney security services are on ground and investigation has opened into this security breach at MMA2.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe affected aircraft is being screened and prepared for service in accordance with United Nigeria Airlines strict security and operating standards.<\/p>\n

\u201cMeanwhile, the development will result in rescheduling of some flights to accommodate the investigations.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe regret the delay this incident will cause our esteemed customers whose scheduled flight will be affected.\u201d the statement ended.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
