The military has foiled another attempt made by bandits to kidnap aviation workers in the staff quarters of the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) at Kaduna Airport.
The foiled attempt which occurred on Sunday morning comes barely two weeks after the kidnap of about 13 staff, including a staff of NAMA and his entire when the bandits attacked NIMET.
A source who spoke to the Nation disclosed that the bandits gained access into the quarters through porous sections of the airport airside leading to runway 23/05.
According to the source, the bandits were reported to have headed straight to their alleged target flashing touch lights to locate their way to his apartment.
But, a distress call prompted the intervention of the military, which engaged the bandits in a gun duel forcing them to escape.
Worried over the development, workers in the junior and senior quarters of THE NATION are leaving the quarters to look for secured accommodation outside the airport environment.
