“Then, shortly after that, some NAMA staff went to check some of their equipment, then these people (bandits) appeared and started shooting.

He said the injured security man was taken to the hospital but was confirmed dead on arrival.

 

“As I am talking to you now, the military is still battling those guys, and they are proving difficult to be repelled. Now, they have shut down the Airport,” he said
