A Muslin fundamentalist by name Aminu Galadima from Niger state who was on Abuja bound Arik Aircraft was dived yesterday by co- passengers mid air when he suddenly stood and started shouting Allah Akbaku (Which means God is great). Normally many terrorist including Boko Haram operate in that wise where they call the name of God as they slaughter their victims. All the passengers including Aminu Galadima underwent thorough security checks at the airport and nothing that could cause security breach was found on him before he boarded the aircraft. I believe memory of how Abdul Mutallab. son of former Chairman of First Bank wanted to ignite an explosive in a Detroit, Michigan bound air craft December 2009 was still fresh in the minds of the passengers.
While some brave passengers mustered courage enough to dive the passenger before he could find his bearing in achieving any dastardly act, some others resorted to fervent prayers. Shortly the incident, the Pilot radioed Abuja Control Tower about he incident and upon safe landing at the Abuja Airport yesterday, the man was handed over to the state security service for further investigations. Speaking through the his specail adviser on media,Joe Obi, the Aviation minister Stella Oduah, stated that there was no iota of truth in the bomb scare and urged Nigerians to desist from spreading false rumor. ''in fact it is a hoax as there is not iota of truth whatsoever in this rumor''
