This was on the news:

"Lagos - Unidentified gunmen shot dead overnight the local station manager for Spanish flag carrier Iberia as he returned home from work at Lagos airport, diplomatic and air industry officials said.
The Argentinian, who was in his 40s, was on his way back from Murtala Mohamed airport late on Thursday with his driver and an armed police guard when unidentified gunmen tried to hold up his vehicle, the officials said.

The driver refused to stop and the assailants opened fire with a machine gun, injuring him and killing Iberia's local director with a bullet to the head, they said."

And this happened Dec 28-29. Main airlines operating to Lagos are well aware of this, as they were following the case from the very beginning through their respectives Security Departments.

THe fact that you donīt know something does not make it unreal.
