Sources have disclosed that if not for the vigilance and
timely response of security agents, another improvised explosive device (IED)
would have exploded at EMAB Plaza shortly after the one that killed 21 persons
and send many others to hospitals for treatment on Wednesday. Coordinator of
the National Information Centre (NIC) Mr. Mike Omeri said this in Abuja Friday
afternoon when he led other members of the Centre in a media briefing on
government’s efforts to curb insurgency in the country.
He explained "that their prompt action on that afternoon led
to the arrest of one of the attackers and the killing of another that was
almost using his gadgets to detonate the second and possibly the third deadly
device."
Omeri , advised citizens to also install the cameras in
their premises to complement that of government.
While refusing to give details, the Director General of the
National Orientation Agency gave the assurance that efforts by the military
especially in the North East to subdue the book haram terrorists were
progressing steadily and that the war was being won by government troops.
"While we do not want to go into details of operations
currently taking place, it is advised that the practice in which some persons
just bandied figures of casualties on either the side of the military or
insurgents should be discouraged and checked. The truth remains that the
military is winning the war and the nation shall surely triumph in this fight”,
he declared.
