Bomb-laden Car Intercepted In Maiduguri by mukina2: 9:53am On Aug 22, 2012
Nigeria’s Borno Joint Task Force (JTF) on Operation Restore Order (ORO) said on Tuesday that it had intercepted a bomb-laden vehicle in Maiduguri.

A statement issued by the JTF spokesman, Lt. Col. Sagir Musa, in Maiduguri on Tuesday, said that the arrest took place on Monday at about 6 p.m.

“The JTF, based on information obtained from an arrested Boko Haram terrorist and moles in the Boko Haram Camp, intercepted a Toyota Camry 2001 model car heavily loaded with Improvised Explosive Device.

“The car has registration number Borno AA 867 MAF and was intercepted in Tudu quarters, Maduganari area of Maiduguri.

The statement said that the vehicle was heading to an unknown destination when it was intercepted, adding that the sponsors of the suicide bomber, led by a high profile Terrorist Commander were under surveillance and would soon be arrested by the JTF.

“ This is the deadliest bomb-laden vehicle to be arrested by the JTF in Maiduguri. Had the suicide bomber gotten to its target, fatalities would have been very high.”

The statement said that recorded bomb materials and incendiaries recovered in the car included four DAF gas oil cylinders, three constructed IED, 18 x 9 volts batteries with 2 switches and four x 25-litre jerricans with incendiary materials earmarked for suicide bombing.

Great job to JTF. I always believe if their brothers being held are persuaded long enough, they will talk.

Keep honing your persuasion skill. We will need them down south with our own terrorists otherwise called kidnappers

These are the same JTF people,that Nigerians do not value.
Even the sudanese appreciate them.

So what is the driver of the camery saying? Where is he coming from? Who send him and where is he going to? They keep arresting bomb laden cars without tracing their origins and sponsors. rubbish

What is still baffling me is that the report does not say anything about the driver...

Abi the car was also being remote controlled or what?!

We can't be sure they aren't doing this for security reasons. The case might be more complicated than it seems!

dozydre: Crooked story to me, how can u talk bout this without showing a pic, Name of the driver. And wat made u ppl tink there sponsors will be waitin to be caught without any trace of were the car is coming from.
Re: Bomb-laden Car Intercepted In Maiduguri by okeyxyz(m): 11:33am On Aug 22, 2012
For all we know this could be the PR department of the federal govt, police & army at work here. Isn't it a wonder that we keep intercepting bombs, arms & armunition week-in, week-out, yet we never get to the bottom of the case? How is it possible that there is so much interception of evidences but it seems non ever leads to the gang, mastermind, or sponsor? Nigerians should please start thinking with their brains and ask the proper questions.

no they want us to be singing praises that they working, when they cannot do the real work. Where did they load the bombs from? Who produced or purchase the bombs from where?. They keep feeding us with how they intercept bombs without the owner. smh

Re: Bomb-laden Car Intercepted In Maiduguri by sureboykris(m): 3:25pm On Aug 22, 2012
Ì ve nothing against d JTF but most times these stories just sound staged. No clues as to where d vehicle is coming ,where its going. How can U̶̲̥̅̊ reveal to us that there r moles in boko haram?U̶̲̥̅̊ don't reveal info like this. Î just feel they r trying to impress d Nigerian populace. Must U̶̲̥̅̊ go to d press each time U̶̲̥̅̊ make an arrest ?if these arrests r true then they r simply sending A̶̲̥̅ message to other culprits to go into hiding

The bomb laden vehicle was shown yesterday on NTA network news (9PM)with better details than what was given here. the doubting Thomas who are asking for picture of the car as evidence are encouraged to be current by watching news to avoid making uninformed comments!
