Nigerian pilgrim harbours artery forcep in his belly for over a decade on HWN GOSSIPS

The Saudi authorities have revealed that a pair of scissors was found in the belly of a certain Nigerian pilgrim arriving Saudi Arabia for the annual Hajj pilgrimage.

Saudi daily ‘Al Wata’n, reports that the unidentified man was going through the metal detecting machine at the airport in the Western Red Sea port of Jeddah when it bleeped, revealing there was a metal in his body.

He was reportedly told by the police to get back, get rid of all metal items and go through the machine again. But the system never stopped screaming, Saudi daily ‘Al Wata’n noted.

He was taken for a scan at the hospital and the big surprise was that it showed there is a big scissors inside his abdomen.

When he was told about it, the pilgrim got a shock. He recalled he underwent a surgery nearly 15 years ago but never experienced any pain afterwards.

Reports, however, did not make clear if the pilgrim was allowed into the Gulf Kingdom.
