It was learnt that the woman who is married to a Lebanese, had arrived Lagos on an Aero Contractors Airline flight from Abuja around noon and was detained for several hours by a combined team of Airport Policemen, Bi-Courtney Airport Security and the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority, NCAA.
According to a staff of Bi-Courtney who spoke on condition of anonymity, the woman had prevented officials of Bi-Courtney and others from screening her bags, a routine protocol at all airports across the globe.
The unnamed staff alleged that the woman used abusive words on the officials and forcibly dragged her luggage out from the Arrival Wing to a waiting Honda CRV with registration number AGL209AA.
However, aviation security alerted the Airport Police who prevented the car from leaving the premises until the bags were subjected to screening.
It was further gathered that the development attracted the attention of other airport users who insisted that the authorities should detain her and the driver of the car.
However, officials at the MMIA reportedly said that after intense argument, the policemen had their way and her bags were checked but nothing incriminating was reportedly found in them.
