THE notorious Islamic sect, Boko Haram, appears unrelenting in its campaign of violence despite the scathing criticisms that have trailed its activities, especially last Sunday’s Christmas day attack on a church in Madalla, Niger State, killing over 40 worshippers.

This time, the sect is said to be plotting to attack the diplomatic missions of the United States of America in Nigeria.

Security sources hinted The Moment On Sunday during the week that the White House is in possession of intelligence reports indicating that the next target of Boko Haram are the US formations in Lagos.

The Barrack Obama administration is among the harshest critics of Boko Haram and recent reports spoke of America’s willingness to assist the Nigerian government in battling the group.

On the receipt of the signals, the American seat of power was said to have promptly alerted the US ambassador to Nigeria, Terence P. McCulley, advising him to ensure that the police fortifies security around all US diplomatic missions and investments in Nigeria.

The ambassador, in turn, reportedly alerted its Consul-General in Lagos, who wasted no time in alerting the Assistant Inspector-General of Police (AIG) in charge of Zone 2, Police Command, comprising Lagos and Ogun states, Mr. Chris Ola.

A letter dated December 29, 2011 and signed by the Regional Consulate Security Officer (names withheld) warned of ‘a serious threat to US missions in Nigeria’.

It requested for more armed policemen to fortify all US missions and investments in Lagos. The letter was said to have specifically mentioned Walter Carrington Street and another US office in Ikoyi Lagos.

Investigations by The Moment On Sunday revealed that the AIG has promptly taken action to fortify the missions, after marathon meetings with different security agencies on Friday.

Our investigations further revealed that more security personnel from both the police and the military were on Friday deployed to all US and British formations in Lagos. In particular, personnel from the Anti-Terrorist Squad (ATS), Anti-Bomb Squad and plainclothes detectives, are said to be among those keeping vigil at the foreign missions.

Efforts to get the AIG to speak on the Boko Haram threat and the action being taken to prevent it were unsuccessful.

Maybe we should finally annexe our govt to them since they obviously do our security duties for us now.

JOHNATHAN MUST GO!!!

Bokoharam have proven that they can go as far as possible to accomplish their goals and objectives, whatever that means. It's obvious the government can't do nothing to stop these people. All countries will have to close their foreign missions in Nigeria and evacuate their pesonnel because a war is imminent.

This is balderdash.

[center] MARK IT! [/center]

I hope the boko haram can really dare it. But I swear, they can't. Cos dat will mark d beginning of their bloody end. Them wan die?

Their treat to me i s distraction. They cant even near any of US and UK consulate not to talk of doing anything there. Its empty treat jare

These BH boys sef are not serious. He be like say the fuel price increase no concern them . Na treath wey go put them for more trouble na em dem dey make. I wonder why dem no annouce say dem wan com bomb church for xmas dey,

Oh Thank God. Good move by BH. But why saying it first nah ? they should just go there quickly and do it and thereafter claiming responsibility. So that American can unleash fleet of Drones, Apache, F35 etc on them and help them a quick journey to hell.

My problem with BH is that they aint targeting the right people. In what way did the ordinary Nigerian goin about his business offend them? People are just tryin to feed their family and you are killin them. Can't they attack Jonathan's convoy or make a detour to the NASS complex and test their popularity with the populace?

This one na lie jor

Look this is no lie dude, I was with my nephew who is a US citizen at the US consulate in Lagos few weeks back, and this was confirmed! All the office complex previously close to the Consulate are completely shut, the top part of the consulate building has go men on spy camera looking at the waters opposite the consulate building 24/7. I was stopped from using my smart/pad on advice of security threat from Boko Haram.

Why o Why?
Sposors of Boko Haram, it is enough o!!!!!!!!!
People are hating Jonathan, you can stop the killing now.

You seems not to understand that this Boko Haram is a loosed movement with no apparent leadership! Will the F35 and all your fancy fighters bomb the Senate? Or has it not done on you that a wing of Boko Haram have a base in the Senate and most likely House of Reps

Who do you think is now in charge of Aso rock security?, guy, it wasnt just rumor mill by the press, this one is 100% true mate, I won't say more than that,

Such claims is practically what is called false flag propaganda designed to achieve a purpose which is simply displaying their ability to predict events through their intelligents angency (C.I.A ,F.B.I and other security contractors like Black waters and so on. Therefore if at all they may be right, my question is, why didn't they predict Madalla bombing and perhahs help in preventing it.

where is my husband JACK BAUER? ;Dkill dem all.
