Five stowaways found on board

Five stowaways were caught aboard the 'Jane' at the Apapa-Lagos anchorage on Sep 25, 2021, with the intention of travelling to Europe. They had gained access through the rudder compartment and were arrested by a NNS Beecroft patrol team during a routine harbour patrol. They had come from different parts of the country to Lagos in search of greener pastures. The stowaways were handed over to the Nigerian Immigration Service for further investigation and prosecution. The tanker left Lagos the same day, headed to Lome.

Tanker attacked off Lagos
