The Defence Headquarters (DHQ) has warned that Boko Haram
terrorists are planning large scale bomb attacks during this month of Ramadan.
The Ramadan fast starts today June 6th and would see many Muslim faithful
converge in their different Mosques to say their prayers and break their fast.
A statement by Defence spokesman, Brigadier General Rabe Abubakar, said
intelligence report gathered by the military indicates that the sect members
are planning to carry out large scale bombings. Abubakar said this in a
statement released yesterday June 5th.
"Against this background, the Defence Headquarters
(DHQ) 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. This is to also advice that
adequate security and surveillance be evolved by respective places of worship
to forestall any unwholesome act by some unscrupulous elements. The DHQ urges
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 address other security challenges in the country”he said
