The gunmen, who returned to the quarters on Sunday, met a stiff resistance from a combined team of the Nigerian Air Force and Nigerian Army.
A FAAN official, who asked not to be named, said the gunmen came through a different route.
“They did not come through the airport side; this time around, they came through another side of the quarters but security agents were prepared for them.”
A resident of the senior staff quarters said the gunmen had targeted one of the houses in the premises but security agents overpowered them.
