As the New Year enters, the airport of Nigeria plans to step up its security. Nigeria is to install 3D body scanners after a failed attack on a US airliner by a Nigerian man, a civil aviation chief said on Wednesday.

Harold Demuren, director general of the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority said,

“Nigeria will be upgrading its security screening system to 3D total body imaging scanner.”

According to Demuren, the Nigerian authorities would import the scanners from Europe or the US and hope they will be operational by the end of January. Some of the country’s domestic airports will be equipped later.

But then again, he said that the 3D Body Scanner doesn’t warranty security since “with the power of cash, anything can be taken onto aircraft in Nigeria…” ( quoted from Google News).
