A dramatic incident unfolded at Lagos Airport on Saturday when a woman tore up her husband’s international passport shortly after their arrival from abroad.

The act, seen by many as vandalism of government property, has ignited public outrage and prompted calls for legal action.

The woman could be heard responding in rage after being asked why she tore the passport, “Is it your passport?”

She later then told off her transfixed husband as she held the kids’ hands out of the walkway, “If you want to sleep there, sleep there, this is Nigeria, this is where you will be.”

Officials could then be heard consoling and telling her husband to calm down and not say anything in response to the outburst of the woman.

The woman’s actions have been widely condemned as both a public display of emotional distress and a serious offense, given that a passport is a document owned by the Nigerian government.

@__jaidz: I don’t know why some women think so shallow, she just acted without even weighing the consequences. I wont be surprised if she later was sorry for this and re think she did a very wrong thing. Women need to stop doing things based on emotions and think logically sometimes all this weaker vessel sh!t is just ignorance and pathway for stupidness.

@fortunateozuyak: May we not be humiliated by the women we settled for as wives!

@Xperience_Snr: She’s not afraid of him. She’s not afraid of any consequences. This is not the first time she’s abusing him. She doesn’t respect him. She sees him as a weak man. She’s in command. The man should do a DNA on all the kids especially the last one. She’s clearly cheating on him.
