Security Operatives warn residents over possible infiltration by Boko Haram

The nation’s capital had been infiltrated by Boko Haram, according to Daily Trust newspaper report.

A security source told the newspaper that some ISWAP commanders are living within the civilian population masterminding plans to launch a terror attack.

The source said:

“We have gone far in securing not only the FCT but Nigeria at large…The terrorists have no hiding place anymore because we are tracking and picking them.

“We know all their antics. Many of them are working as mechanics, tailors, carpenters, labourers, and even experts in some fields…We know what is happening.”

Meanwhile, the Nigerian Police Force and the DSS have urged residents not to be alarmed as precautionary measures are in place to clamp down on any imminent attack.

A security warning of an impending terrorist attack on the Federal Capital Territory was released by the US Embassy 48 hours ago (FCT).

This warning went viral and gained wide acceptance, which caused several reactions from top government officials and agencies.

The Department of State Services (DSS) reacted a few hours to the US’s release of the security warning.

The DSS urged residents not to panic but also advised that they take precautionary measures, remain alert, and help with any useful information to clamp down on any attempt by terrorists to launch an attack.

Similarly, the Nigerian Police Force (NPF) also issued a statement on Monday, October 24, stating that strategic plans are already in place to fortify all police units.
