...NEED FOR LOCAL SECURITY APPARATUS
The Defence
Headquarters wishes to alert the general public of the new modus operandi of
the rattled Boko Haram terrorists using suicide bombers, attacking worship
places at dawn, targeting worshipers and other soft vulnerable places. The unfortunate suicide attacks in Madagali
in Adamawa State and the University of Maiduguri in Borno State are recent
occurrences in this direction.
In view of
this, the DHQ is reminding our citizens,
especially those in the North East, to be conscious of this development and to
equally emplace other measures including but not limited to deploying vigilante
and other security apparatus during worship session with a view to
complimenting the efforts of the
military and other security agents.
While the
military will continue to maintain high level of security presence in and
around North East including stop and search on suspected individuals and
vehicles to avert any unforeseen circumstances, public is urged to be extra
vigilant, especially in worship places and other vulnerable areas at dawn. This appeal becomes imperative, especially
now that Boko Haram sect has been dislodged from their erstwhile enclaves in
Sambisa forest and is now on the loose, constituting threat to our innocent
citizens.
