OSI Systems [OSIS] says its Rapiscan Systems division has received a contract from Nigeria for multiple Secure 1000 Single Pose Advanced Imaging Technology body scanners that are expected to be installed in all four of the country’s international airports and be used to screen passengers traveling to the U.S. and other countries. The value of the order wasn’t disclosed. The award follows a recent announcement by the Nigerian Federal Executive Council to deploy the whole body imaging technology in the wake of the failed Christmas day bombing aboard Northwest Airlines Flight 253. The would-be suicide bomber, Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, began his airborne journey in Nigeria, transferring to Flight 253 at Amsterdam’s Schiphol airport. The Nigerian order also follows a recent announcement by Rapiscan that the Britain’s Heathrow and Manchester International Airports will be deploying the Secure 1000 Single Pose.
