The Murtala Muhammed International Airport in Lagos State was rocked by a ruckus when airport employees refused to release travelers’ luggage in protest over unpaid salary.

According to eyewitness accounts, the airport personnel had not been paid for 6 months, forcing them to take dramatic measures.

The tourists were seen waiting at the baggage reclaim area to receive their luggage in the footage, which has now gained traction, but the airport employees kept telling them to step back.

One of the guests attempting to regain his luggage claimed that anyone who tapes the incident will not be able to retrieve their belongings.
