In a statement released on Monday, ASP Mohammed Adeola, the Police Public Relations Officer for the Airport Police Command in Ikeja, clarified that the significant security presence and activity observed at the facility were part of a pre-planned simulation exercise.

According to the Police, this drill was conducted by the Office of the National Security Adviser (ONSA) on Thursday, September 10, 2026. The primary objective was to evaluate and enhance the operational readiness and response capabilities of various security and emergency services.

Adeola emphasized that the exercise was designed specifically to test inter-agency coordination in the face of a simulated security threat. Personnel and stakeholders were deployed to recreate a realistic emergency within the airport environment. The goal was to assess existing response mechanisms, communication protocols, command structures, and the overall ability of participating agencies to work together effectively during a crisis.

The Command stressed that this was a controlled, authorised event and categorically stated that it should not be mistaken for an “actual terrorist attack or invasion of the airport.”

Travelers, airport users, and the general public are urged to ignore unverified reports circulating on social media and other platforms. The police cautioned against spreading such misinformation, which can lead to unnecessary fear and panic.

“The Command reassures the public that the security situation at the airport remains under control and that all relevant security agencies remain vigilant and committed to ensuring the safety and security of passengers, airport personnel, facilities, and other stakeholders,” the statement concluded.

Nwuche argued that this initiative is effectively expanding President Tinubu’s support base ahead of the 2027 election by building a bridge across party lines. He emphasized that the coalition allows members of opposition parties to support the President’s re-election without formally defecting, describing it as a crucial political opening.

The former Deputy Speaker dismissed claims that the coalition would harm Tinubu’s 2027 prospects, stating that adding new constituencies and stakeholders inherently strengthens electoral chances. He also refuted suggestions of confusion within the coalition regarding its consensus governorship candidate in Rivers State, asserting that such speculation is baseless. Nwuche affirmed the coalition’s commitment to ensuring massive support for President Tinubu and its candidates across Rivers State and the entire federation in the 2027 general elections.
