The Defence Headquarters has raised the alarm that members of the Boko Haram sect were planning a large scale bombing during the Ramadan festival.

The Acting Director Defence Information, Brig. Gen. Rabe Abubakar, said in an electronic mail on Saturday that the insurgents had a plan to carry out massive bomb attacks during early morning and evening prayers during Ramadan.

Abubakar urged religious organisations to take necessary security precautions during the period.

He also called on the members of the public to be on the watch out for strange objects and report all suspicious movements to security operatives for prompt action.

He said, “Information available to this Headquarters indicated plans by terrorists to use the Ramadan period which usually attracts gathering of large number of persons during morning and evening worships and prayers to carry out large scale bombings.

“Against this background, the Defence Headquarters wishes to once again advice the general public to be watchful of strange persons and objects in their localities particularly, around places of worship and to promptly report same to security agencies.

“It is further to advice that adequate security and surveillance be evolved by respective places of worship to forestall any unwholesome acts by some unscrupulous elements.

“The DHQ wishes to reassure law abiding citizens to go about their normal businesses while efforts are being made to eliminate the remnants of the terrorists from their hideouts as well as addressing other security challenges in the country.”

Stop threatening people on social media over ban. He's right to ask you if... it was the Boko Haram that's been technically defected or another one, is just a simple question. Just a YES/ NO will do him, thanks.

MadamExcellency:


After abusing and insulting this innocent guy for his inquisitiveness, you went ahead threatening him with a ban?

You need to get off social media as it's very obvious you still have a long way to go in understanding how things work. Even to understand simple grammar is difficult for you.

Think twice before you reply so you don't get yourself banned. Four persons already serving term courtesy of me.

I wish the Northern Elites has been preaching the truth version of Islam to their people from the beginning we wouldn't found ourselves in this mess. Islam is not about violence, not about ignorance but Knowledge. You cannot be breeding Almajiri for decades and expect peace in such society, able men and boys are roaming aimlessly in the street and you forget idle hand is devil tools.

Allahumo Nojini Moha Nojina. Ameen.

Seahawk:

the Nigeria FG only got her weapons from the sells of Niger Delta OIL. and it will not happened anymore. currently the FG is weaken day by day due to short supply of Niger Delta OIl. so what this meas is that the FG can no longer fund the war against NDA. this is a preplanned revolution to unleash on the FG if the FG take this matter to a war battlefield.

no country will supply FG arms because no more oil money. and boko haram will be stronger and Iran will sponsor the shitty against the sunni.
