The Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) has arrested over 90 persons including touts at the ports caught at both the Murtala Muhammed Airport, Lagos, and Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja, with fake COVID-19 test results.
According to the Public Relation Officer, FAAN, Mrs. Henrietta Yakubu, noted some of those arrested are staff of Patovilki Nigeria Limited, Lakewood Services, Nahco Plc, and other airport staff.
Of the total arrested, 59 were handed over to the airport police command in Abuja for prosecution, while 30 were handed over to the police force in Lagos for the same.
FAAN, therefore, used the opportunity to warn those that do not have any legitimate business at the airports, as well as airport staff carrying out illegal duties to desist from such acts, vowing that it will not hesitate to arrest and hand over such individuals for prosecution.
