Boko Haram Plans To Use Govt Number Plates For Its Attacks by Beaf: 12:20am On Sep 21, 2011
[size=14pt]Boko Haram plans to use govt number plates •Military alerts to plans to bomb govt offices •Security men search for sect members in Warri [/size]

THE military high command has warned all establishments under its purview to be wary of how they allow vehicles with Federal Government number plates into their premises.

A circular from the Defence Headquarters, signed by a two star-general, entitled: “Boko Haram plans to penetrate targeted Federal Government establishments,” disclosed that intelligence report had revealed that Boko Haram was planning to fix Federal Government number plates on their vehicles to facilitate penetration of government establishments by its fighters on bombing mission.

The report also revealed that the sect had commenced the procurement of used gas cylinders, airconditioners, compressors of refrigerators and metal scraps for the manufacture of Improvised Explosive Derices (IEDs).

Nigerian Tribune gathered that the military authorities have consequently warned against hurried checking of cars with Federal Government number plates by security operatives.

It directed security operatives to go further by checking the engines of vehicles and other parts.

Furthermore, they warned that extra vigilance should be maintained in checking all vehicles with military number plates or Federal Government number entering military establishments.

Following these new directives, security has been beefed up at the Defence Headquarters complex known as the “Boat House” and the Ministry of Defence headquarters also, called “Ship House.”

Also, all military establishments around the country have been directed to adopt similar security measures in their locations.

Search for sect members

Meanwhile, undercover security agents, on Monday, intensified their search for suspected Boko Haram members alleged to have arrived in Warri, Delta State, on Sunday.

Plain-clothes policemen and operatives of the State Security Service (SSS) were seen at areas usually congregated by the Hausas.

Nigerian Tribune  sighted the security operatives at Hausa Quarters on the Warri-Sapele road, Ugbuwangwe, on the Nigerian Port Authority (NPA) Expressway and Ram market on the Effurun- Sapele road.

Security agents were, on Sunday, put on the red alert in Warri, Warri South Local Government Area, following a report on the arrival of three vehicles loaded with some suspected members of the Boko Haram members.

A highly placed source disclosed to Nigerian Tribune, on Monday that unlike other security agencies, operatives of the SSS were not taking the matter lightly, as they were combing everywhere to verify the truth or otherwise of the report.

“The SSS people are not taking the information with levity. They are combing everywhere to ensure that there is no threat to the people and facilities in the oil-rich town. The Joint Task Force (JTF) is also working towards verifying the information,” he said.

Coordinator, Joint Media Campaign Centre of Joint Task Force (JTF), Lieutenant-Colonel Anthony Antigha, said the special security outfit was liaising with other sister security agencies in the state to verify the reported arrival of the suspected Boko Haram members.

He, however, said the report might have emanated from the usual arrival of vehicles bringing in goods from some northern states to Warri, which had been on for a long time.

“Let it not be that it is one of the vehicles that usually bring goods from the North that generated the report, but we are trying to authenticate it by reaching out to sister security agencies,” he said.

Apparently allaying the fear of residents of Warri and environs, Lieutenant-Colonel Antigha said the JTF had always maintained a high security alert and that was responsible for the tight security not only around oil installations in the Niger Delta but also in other states because of the recent security concerns in the country.

It is becoming more evident that this guys don't have the interest of islam at heart.,.,.
Its not like I believe they have for a while.
What pains me the most is that they are using the name of islam, when they have other goals which looks more and more political and revenge.

Its so bad that people in delta judge me just from my name, and believe am sympathetic towards this group of people.
If only people could see what islam truely is and stands for not through boko haram, al-qaeda, taliban and other terrorist groups. People would appreciate the religion, I swear!!!


It pains, pains me!

Ya rabb, expose this people who are responsibe for destroying the image of the beautiful islam, restore the image of our beloved religon. Have mercy on us and guide us aright. Ameen,

I believe this is all a simple case of distraction. Political ploy by the powers that be!
Cause chaos in the country and pave the way for a MILITARY COUP to assure the nation of security.
This Northern Politicians want power at all costs. I hope Nigerians are watching and listening. We will not accept any disguised coup. If these Northerners try any nonsense, they will be doomed cause Nigeria will split
Re: Boko Haram Plans To Use Govt Number Plates For Its Attacks by Josh316(m): 5:41pm On Sep 21, 2011
I wonder when Nigerian Journalists will get it right, there is no such thing as BOAT HOUSE, the Ministry of Defence is called SHIP HOUSE and it is the same thing as the DEFENCE H/Q,

Its not news that they want to use Govt Number plates. What is news is that till date we cannot utilise chipped number plates which can be scanned easily to reveal the true identity of the vehicle owners cos of shameless corruption and selfishness, the security agencies should be able to intercept the particular vehicle by means of infiltration and not come and start telling the nation cock and bull stories like it will change anything. Infiltrate and destroy, that is the key, finito!
