A member of OBO,s crew identified as Kayode attacked officials of the Nigerian Customs Service (NCS) and the Aviation Security (AVSEC) at the Murtala Mohammed International Airport (MMIA), Lagos, Sahara Reporters reports.
David reportedly arrived from Dubai on an Emirates flight with a baggage number of 17, which Kayode reportedly refused to allow the checkpoint officers to check.
According to an airport source who spoke to Sahara Reporters, every time David arrives at the airport, he leaves his luggage to the crew to clear, and leaves the terminal to distribute money. People who are coming in need to hand in their tags to the checkpoints for confirmation and verification, the source said. Kayode, however, refused to release the tags, which led to an argument. Sahara Reporters reports that Kayode hit staff at a checkpoint in the face and beat another airport employee in the baggage claim area. He was quickly limited, according to reports, and was taken to "Tango City", where unruly people would be detained before being picked up by the police. While there, Kayode again beat a woman AVSEC official, and another customs official who cut his wrist on an industrial fan. The witness stated that the fight finally caught Davido's attention, and he returned, trying to secure his luggage. However, his luggage was not handed to him like last night.
The eyewitness said:
Whenever Davido arrives the airport, he usually leave his check-in luggage for his aides to clear. Immediately he arrives on a flight, he goes out and will start doling out money outside the terminal.
“Today, he arrived as usual with several luggage and about 17 in all. The rule is that whenever you arrive, you are expected to release your tags to the Checkport staff for confirmation and verification, but rather than comply with the simple rule, one of his aides insisted he won’t allow them to check the tags.
“He rebuffed everyone who were carrying out their lawful duties and resorted to attack the officials. No fewer than four officials were beaten by the person in question with at least two of them soaked in blood.
“When he was uncontrollable, he was bundled into the cell and he insisted that he must be taken to a police station. This however, attracted Davido’s attention who was already out of the terminal. He had to return, but the security officials refused to hand over the luggage to him. One of the luggage we even gathered contained some money in foreign currencies.#Africa ... spill TEA....
