There is tension in Kogi State over alleged plot by members of Boko Haram to bomb the popular Jamata/Murtala bridge linking the northern and southern parts of the country even as the State Security Service (SSS) said it has arrested 100 suspects in over six states.



The development came less than 24 hours after police foiled another plot by the Islamic fundamentalists to bomb the headquarters of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC), located at Central Business District, Garki, Abuja.




The same group of fundamentalists attacked the Nigeria Police headquarters, Louis Edet House, Abuja on June 16. The sect was said to have sent text messages to some security outfits in Kogi, warning them of their imminent incursion into the state.

A source confided in Daily Sun that Itobe Bridge, which links Eastern part of the country to Kogi State was also a target to be bombed by the sect.
Due to this threat, the source hinted that eagle-eyed operatives have been ordered to mount a 24-hour surveillance in and around the two bridges and to patrol the Rivers Niger and Benue by boats.

Seems like these guys wants to cut of the southern part away so that they can have their own country?.

Wow, the gauntlet has been thrown down.

My advise to citizens is to start converting hard currency Naira to Gold and currencies like the Euro, Sterling and the USD
