Boy who hid in an Arik plane tyre thought it was US Bound

The teenage stowaway, Daniel Ihekina, who was arrested at the Lagos
Airport after flying in the tyre hole of an Arik plane from Benin to Lagos
on Saturday morning, thought he was on a US-bound flight.
An airport source, who did not want his name in print spoke to Punch
“From what we heard, the boy said he was being maltreated and
tried to escape from his parents. He thought he was on his way to
the US.The parents have travelled to Lagos by road, to get him
back.”
The General Manager, Corporate Communications, Federal Airports
Authority of Nigeria, Mr. Yakubu Dati, said
“The residential address the boy gave to us was traced to a church
in Benin by our airport manager and his team. So, there is need to
hand over the teenager to the SSS who are experts in such
investigations. They will carry out further investigation on the
matter.”
Haa he wouldn't have made it.Even surprised he survived Benin to Lagos
