The video (now deleted) was tweeted by a Nigerian broadcast journalist, Olajumoke Alawode-James, with the Twitter user ID, @oluwaloninyo. “Terrorists at Kaduna airport!,” her tweet reads. START: Claim that bandits were chasing police officers in Kaduna is MISLEADING! The tweet has garnered over 5,500 views, 150 retweets and over 140 likes as of 1:00 pm on Monday, March 28, 2022.

THE VERDICT The claim that the video shows terrorists’ invasion of Kaduna airport is FALSE; checks revealed that the video is that of supporters of a politician who rode motorcycles on the Sokoto airport runway in 2018.
