The fear of Boko Haram is
the beginning of wisdom, they say, passengers and crew of an Abuja-bound
aircraft belonging to Arik Air were thrown into panic on Tuesday when a
passenger behaving in a strange manner stood up and screamed
Allahu Akbar(God is great) midair.
The scared
passengers, who took off from Maiduguri, Borno State, rushed to the strange
passenger identified as Aminu Galadima, grabbed him and searched him to
ascertain if he had a bomb strapped to his body.
“Nothing incriminating; no explosives or
weapons whatsoever were found on him. However, midair, the passenger began to
act strangely, loudly screaming, ‘God is great.’ Fellow passengers, alarmed by
his behaviour rushed to apprehend him.
“A thorough
search by fellow passengers and crew members revealed nothing dangerous on him.
The pilot immediately radioed Air Traffic Control and airport security
operatives.
