[size=14pt]Police Arrest 2 Over Bomb Threat [/size]


An alleged telephone conversation between two suspected members of Boko Haram, to bomb Lagos Third Mainland Bridge has led to their arrest.
The suspects were arrested on Tuesday at Ogba area of Lagos State, Southwest, Nigeria when their alleged dastardly plan to bomb the ever busy longest bridge connecting Lagos Island to the mainland was exposed.
Though the details of the incident and the arrest were still sketchy at press time, P.M.NEWS gathered that the two men, one of them identified as Satua Safana, 23, are from Guinea Republic.
The police at the Area ‘G’ Police Division in Ogba were tipped off by an unidentified man who overheard the suspects while communicating on phone with their accomplices that they were on their way to bomb the bridge.
Police source told P.M.NEWS this morning that during a preliminary investigation at the police station, incriminating evidences on the bomb attempt were uncovered through the suspects’ handsets.
They have been reportedly transferred to the State Criminal Investigations Department, CID, Panti, Yaba Lagos for thorough investigation.
When P.M.NEWS visited the CID this morning, the police declined to comment on the incident.
However, a police source confirmed that the suspects have been flown to Abuja for further interrogation.
When our correspondent contacted the Lagos State Police Command spokesman, Samuel Jinadu, he said he was in a meeting with the Police Commissioner and told our correspondent to call him later.

Very Funny hearsay to arrest somebody, and who in nigeria will hear such a thing and be willing to inform the police without the person being arrest too, nice try

NIGERIA POLICE SHOULD JOIN NOLLYWOOD PLEASE, THEY ARE COMEDIANS. DID THEY CATCH THE SUSPECT WITH BOMB? SINCE HE WAS ON HIS WAY TO BOMB ?

DONT THEIR ACCOMPLICES KNOW THAT THEY ARE GOING TO BOMB THE BRIDGE ? SO WHY WILL THEY BE DISCUSSING IT AS THEY GO?

SOON POLICE WILL START ARRESTING PEOPLE WHO TALK ON THE PHONE AS THEY GO, IF SOMEONE CALLS YOU AND ASK, WHERE ARE YOU NOW? WE ARE WAITING. AND YOU ANSWER " I AM ON MY WAY " .

YOU DON ENTER BE THAT OO POLICE WILL ARREST YOU AS BOMB SUSPECT. WHEN YOU GET TO THE STATION THEY WILL ASK YOU " ON YOUR WAY TO BOMB SOMEWHERE ABI ?" WE DON CATCH YOU TODAY, BEFORE YOU KNOW IT, WE WILL READ ABOUT YOU ON NL

Imagine saying to a friend over the phone, "That party was the bomb", and being overheard by a member of the police force. You would probably be arrested for planning to bomb a political party.

bia, behave ya sef,i came to nland to have fun and not die of laughter. . .

Well, it's too early to dismiss the arrest as a ruse. Although the Nigeria Police have totally lost credibility, the rate at which the Boko Haram group has been operating is enough to give the policemen a benefit of doubt. On another note, they may have been trying to protect the identity of the whistle blower.

nah wha oooo! Naija police n drama lol well i saw 1 baby at train station dis morning believe me her back is bomb lol

I dey laugh oooooooooooooo

In bomb threat, every information is important and must be followed to the end. No rumour without base

too funny

Seriously I just want to see them bomb third mainland bridge in Lagos, it will definitely be the end of Nigeria as we know it, I am almost certain of that.

Its funny that people are seeing this as a laughing matter. there is no smoke without fire. I already warned my parents to avoid third mainland bridge for the next couple of months, especially during Christmas period!

I wonder if the people laughing about the incident are actually id!ots. There things to laugh at, but I guess the thought of dead Nigerians triggers happiness in fools.

You are sick if you find the article funny.

Some people do not like to take the bull by the horn, they don,t like to call a spade a spade that is why we are facing all these security problems in Nigeria today. Serious matters are not taken seriously until the worst happen. You want millions to die when the bridge is bombed before it will be evidential for the police to act?. Their action is called pro-active policing.
