Boko Haram May Strike In Calabar by manchy7531: 1:40pm On Jan 26, 2012
The terrorist Islamic sect, Boko Haram, is reportedly set to unleash mayhem on the Cross River State capital any moment from now in fulfillment of its promise of last year.

Intelligence reports at the disposal of security agencies in Calabar revealed that the sect had already set its machines in motion to strike.

A senior officer at the Eastern Naval Command (ENC) disclosed on condition of anonymity that members of the sect would already have hit Calabar except that some residents of the city contacted to help execute the plan showed no interest in the plan.

Last year, the sect included Calabar in the list of cities in the country that it wanted to bomb. Since then, security men in the city have been placed on red alert, but the latest threat as contained in the intelligence report which senior military and para-military officers have is such that cannot be dismissed.

The military officer said that the sect’s suicide bombers had been trying to penetrate oil installations in the Niger Delta to no avail, adding that attempts by them to invade Calabar through Ikang in Bakassi Local Government Area had also failed, and that they had now resolved to come to Calabar by road, disguised as businessmen.
