The drama surrounding the yet-to-be-identified couple involved in the tearing of a document said to be the man’s international passport by the wife at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Ikeja, Lagos State is yet unending.
This followed the arrest of the woman by operatives of the Nigeria Immigration Service and her movement to Abuja.
The arrest, on Wednesday, also coincided with the release of a video by the man, on the television platform of the family, claiming that what transpired at the airport was a skit.
So also have the couple shot another video where there was an altercation between the woman and a supposed mother of the husband over the incident.
The woman was seen coming out of the arrival gate of the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja with some NIS operatives.
She was then led into a pick-up van of the NIS and driven away.
In a video seen by The Eagle Online, with two of the couple’s three children, the husband said: “What my wife tore is not passport.
