The Authority labelled the reports as “baseless and practically impossible”.
Recall that singer Tiwa Savage had stated on Instagram stories that her luggage and that of other passengers aboard a chartered flight from Uyo to Lagos on Boxing Day was pilfered while the aircraft was still taxiing on the runaway.
The singer also called out the FAAN for the security breach and wondered how unauthorised persons could gain access to such sensitive areas of the airport without being spotted by security.
In a statement released last night by its spokesperson, Mrs Henrietta Yakubu, the Airport Authority insists “it is practically impossible for an aircraft to be burgled within our runways and aprons”.
She says: “Furthermore because aircraft are highly technical machines, it is practically impossible for anyone who does not have the requisite training and competence to operate or tamper with the baggage compartment.”
Debunking insinuation that theft of luggage from the aircraft was becoming a frequent occurrence following previous reports that another private jet arriving from Istanbul, Turkey was burgled, FAAN insisted that in both instances preliminary findings from investigations conducted by an inter-agency committee set up to probe the allegations could not substantiate the claims.
“The purported victims in the said cases also did not make themselves available for questioning, in the quest to unravel the case”, the statement reads.
Investigations are still on-going.
I think a proper investigation should be done.
Exactly she can’t obviously lie they stole her bags
FAAN should really investigate well
before outsiders start giving this country another name
@Tobi you right.Am of the view that to get to the bottom of this matter, FAAN should hand over the case to the CID for proper investigation.

FAAN claimed they did set up a commitee to check this issue after it happened to the Private jet from Instabul
meaning this is not he first time
so these two reports are false
So are you saying that Aunty Tiwa just woke up one morning and decided to lie against them?? What will it profit her? Faan should take responsibility
It is only typical for FAAN to debunk this as a rumour, no one would want their reputation soiled.
Hmmm if FAAN is denying they no nothing about Aunty Tiwa’s luggagae.
So who now took the luggage now?? The workers in the airport need to be checked properly, cos a passerby cannot just take it. It has to be an insider. My opinion..
if they find out its someone among them that did that
I am very sure it is someone among them. They must have planned it.
Yes it from someone from them.
dem rob person una talk say them no rob am lmao
What a pity on her
