A BREAKTHROUGH has been recorded in the investigation into the Independence Day explosions in Abuja, with the arrest Monday of a suspect believed to have set off the bombs.

The State Security Service (SSS), it was gathered, picked up the suspect in Port Harcourt, the Rivers State capital.

The suspect was flown to Abuja amid tight security around 1.00pm Monday.

It was also gathered that the United States’ Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has joined Nigerian security agencies to track fleeing suspects, but it was not known whether the FBI played any part in the arrest of the suspect in Port Harcourt.

Before Monday, the SSS had arrested nine persons. The Police said they arrested one person and declared two others wanted.

Those declared wanted by the police are Chima Orlu and Ben Jessy. They are still at large.

A highly-placed security source described yesterday’s arrest in Port Harcourt as “a breakthrough”.

“With the arrest of one of the suspects who triggered the explosions, we are finally closing in on those behind the dastardly act,” he said.

Responding to a question, the source added: “As a matter of fact, some of the suspects in detention gave clues which led to the arrest.

“Those in custody identified him as one of the bombers. The quizzing of the suspect will provide further insight into how the bombing was hatched and executed.

“There is no doubt that we are making headway and those connected with the explosions will soon be brought to justice.”

But the identities of all the 11 suspects so far arrested remain unknown.

Another source said: “We are yet to unveil their identities for security reasons. We are suspecting that a syndicate might have carried out the explosions. We do not want those yet to be arrested to escape.

“You need to appreciate that in this kind of investigation, we have no choice but to adopt a covert approach.”

It was not immediately clear when the trial of the remaining seven of the 11 suspects in SSS custody will begin.

Four of the suspects were arraigned on October 8 before a Chief Magistrate’s Court in Zone 6 in Abuja.

They were ordered to be remanded in the custody of the SSS, pending the conclusion of investigations and commencement of their trial.

They are standing trial before Chief Magistrate Oyeyiola Oyewumi for alleged involvement and complicity in the bomb explosions on October 1.

In Johannesburg, South Africa, Henry Okah, one-time leader of the Movement for the Emancipation of Niger Delta (MEND), is standing trial for alleged terrorism also in connection with the Abuja explosions.

A source dismissed the alleged rivalry between the SSS and the police over the investigation into the explosions.

The source said Nigeria had to rely on foreign expertise because of their superior equipment in such investigations.

“They have the equipment. Instead of drafting 500 men, two men can do a job with the right equipment. Policing is not about the number of men but about the equipment.”

Police spokesman Emmanuel Ojukwu said investigations were going on well.

“Nobody wants the issue to die. Those Nigerians who were killed in the process will get justice. We are doing a lot to get to the root of it,” Ojukwu said.

after the election then,it will not help

Such effort will never yield any positive result in a country such as ours
where accountability and value for human beings amounts to nothing.

I wonder why my Mr. President was so quick to exonerate MEND
despite the fact that investigation has not be concluded.

Oh Mr. President, I feel for u o

Yes, if he is committed and sincere, he will surely get them.
