WASHINGTON (AP) -- The Associated Press has learned that a second Nigerian man has been taken into custody aboard a jetliner in Detroit after locking himself in the airliner's bathroom.

A law enforcement official tells the AP that the incident took place aboard the same Northwest flight that was attacked on Christmas Day. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because the incident was ongoing.

A Delta spokeswoman says all 256 passengers have been safely taken off the plane. Delta operates the Northwest flight.

My only worry with this is if its a Nigerian and if its a case of profiling. But Il rest my conclusions till I get full gist.

This could actually be a fall out of the actions of Umaru boko haram Mutallab.

All Nigerians are now been profiled as potential terrorists

This is what this boko haram i.diot has caused us.
Re: Breaking News: Another Nigerian Arrested On Same Detroit Route! by Hesperus(m): 8:48pm On Dec 27, 2009
According to sources, he "barricaded" himself in the toilet for about an hour, and security had to break the door down!

Me, I doubt how true that is. I think the full story is not being said.

Sounds like another Boko Haram! embarassed
Lets wait for the gist to come out, I hope its just paranoia (but that will still point to bad news, hard times for Nigerians).

Re: Breaking News: Another Nigerian Arrested On Same Detroit Route! by SEFAGO(m): 9:06pm On Dec 27, 2009
this flight was to nigeria- there would be lots of Nigerians on the flight
Re: Breaking News: Another Nigerian Arrested On Same Detroit Route! by Epiphany(m): 9:07pm On Dec 27, 2009
These are not the best times to be a Nigerian. What the hell was/is wrong with this second person? Profiling or not, rude behaviour from the airport officials or not (for being a Nigerian), the guy should have behaved himself. Is he silly?

God!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is all messed up man

Re: Breaking News: Another Nigerian Arrested On Same Detroit Route! by Beaf: 9:08pm On Dec 27, 2009
Its on TV (CNN)! shocked shocked shocked shocked

All the luggage from that plane has been laid out on the tarmac in Detroit for experts to go through painstackingly. Na wa! I hope it doesn't turn out to be what it seems to be turning into.

Jesu!
Re: Breaking News: Another Nigerian Arrested On Same Detroit Route! by SEFAGO(m): 9:08pm On Dec 27, 2009

Exactly! It is likely profiling and the way the guy may have handled the incident when confronted.

A black guy spending time in an airline toilet is now an issue.

Picture this scenario. . . You're in a building working really hard to meet your quota for the day when suddenly a suicide bomber runs in front of you (and your colleagues) yelling "allahu akbar", exposes his chest to show an explosives vest packed to the teeth with hundreds of kilograms of TATP and armed with a detonator. As he attempts to detonate the bomb, a fizzy sound is heard and nothing happens.

The rational thing to do IS TO RUN TO HIDE IN THE TOILET OF THE BUILDING (FOR OVER ONE HOUR) THE VERY SUICIDE BOMBER INTENDS BOMBING, where chances of a possible detonation is still possible, RIGHT?

Tell me you're being stoopid for a reason
Re: Breaking News: Another Nigerian Arrested On Same Detroit Route! by Beaf: 9:10pm On Dec 27, 2009
Ther passengers are also being questions and dogs have been called in. The Nigerian remains in custody.

Re: Breaking News: Another Nigerian Arrested On Same Detroit Route! by Epiphany(m): 9:12pm On Dec 27, 2009
. . . so if people ask me what country i am from now, what am i to say? Even though i will say i am a Nigerian, i wont be able to push my chest out and say with all confidence, I AM A NIGERIAN.

This had better blow over quickly.

Yeah Im sure most of us must have guessed this but we still need to follow up on the issue cos it def must not be profiling, !! we are still trying to dust 419 off our clothes
Re: Breaking News: Another Nigerian Arrested On Same Detroit Route! by Hesperus(m): 9:17pm On Dec 27, 2009
I believe what happened is that the guy was unnecessarily questioned for being in the toilet, and then he lost his head. Granted, he should have understood that in the light of recent developments, security measures will be stepped up. But still, these white guys can seriously take the piss! I can imagine how they would have gone about it, making him look like a criminal even before finding anything suspicious. That alone is enough to make a man go mad.

Now it is all over the news, another Naija guy. And BBC just reported that having gone through all the luggage, NO explosives were found. Abeg make dem go siddon jare!
