Navy Arrests 14 Stowaways In Lagos by Morbeta11(m): 1:35pm On Dec 21, 2023

The Nigerian Navy Ship Beecroft said it arrested 14 stowaways onboard a motor tanker UOG Constantine at Lagos Road Stead.

The Commander, NNS Beecroft and Maritime Component Commander Of Operation Awatse, Commodore Kolawole Oguntuga, disclosed this in a statement signed by the base Information Officer, NNS Beecroft, Sub-Lieutenant H. A Collins, on Tuesday.

The suspects include Osas Nusakare, Victor Egoma, Okechi Chika, Stephen Mmuta, Ibrahim Hassan, Ebuka Onura and Okonkwo Gift.

Others are Emmanuel Godbless, Ayefuwe Collins, Alfred Ese, Abubakar Ibrahim, Godspower Moses, Aki Opeoluwa and Oluwatosin Sunday.

Oguntuga, in the statement, disclosed that the stowaways were arrested on December 15, 2023.

He added that two of them had previously been arrested for a similar offence a month ago.

He said, “In a proactive and resolute demonstration to sustain maritime security, the patrol team of Nigerian Navy Ship Beecroft, successfully intercepted and extracted 14 stowaways from a motor tanker to UOG Constantine at Lagos Road Stead on Friday, December 15, 2023.

“The timely action was prompted by intelligence received from the Maritime Domain Awareness Facility, the Falcon Eye Alignment. Tactical teams swiftly boarded the vessel and discovered movements within the rudder compartment.

“Two of the apprehended stowaways had previously been arrested for a similar offence just a month ago, emphasising the persistence of such illicit activities.

“However, the brave efforts of the patrol team averted life-threatening conditions for the individuals confined in the vessel’s compartment, emphasising the Nigerian Navy’s commitment to maritime safety,”

Oguntuga also disclosed that the stowaways have been handed over to the Nigeria Immigration Service for necessary actions.

“The arrested stowaways were promptly handed over to the Nigeria Immigration Service following established protocols for further necessary action.

“The incident underscores the Nigerian Navy’s unwavering commitment to its constitutional role under the leadership of the Chief of the Naval Staff, Vice Admiral EI Ogalla, reinforcing the dedication to creating a secure maritime environment for the nation’s economic prosperity,” he added.

Persistence. Na dem dey post "Kwechiri. No gree for anybody. You sef no small". grin

Meanwhile, many tribes are represented in this particular misconduct. Hardship is everywhere. So, no gateway for tribalists under this post.

It's interesting to note that the stowaways cut across the different ethnic groups of the country.

There's no tribalism when it comes to hardship.

Life is so unbearably hard, people will do anything, even stare death in the face, to escape the hellscape that is Nigeria.

More of this is to be expected in months and years to come. Our youths just want to leave the shores of this country by all means possible not minding the dangers and what awaits them in their unknown destination.

They should rehabilitate and help them financially... If they had enough money they'd have travelled the right way.
