Suspected Cable Vandal Electrocuted Inside FAAN Powerhouse At Lagos Airport

The suspected vandal had allegedly attempted to steal electrical cables and other equipment inside the FAAN powerhouse before he was electrocuted by the cables. The middle-aged man found his way into the power-generating building and had begun disconnecting the installations that supply power to the Lagos Airport before he met his Waterloo.

Confirming the incident, the managing director of FAAN, Olubunmi Kuku, said the agency was leaving no stone unturned to ensure that all loopholes that will allow unauthorized persons into the airports were blocked. Kuku, who spoke at the commissioning of 30 Special Forces that will man the Lagos Airport, affirmed that vandals have crossed the perimeter fences of airports and stolen airfield lighting equipment, or potentially harmed some workers on site.
