The Department of State Services, DSS,
has alerted Abuja residents over plots
by Boko Haram to attack churches,
mosques and markets, using girls to
bomb those places.


A memo by the Director of Security
Services, Federal Capital Territory,
Mohammed Ibrahim, urged religious
bodies to put their members on the
alert.

The memo addressed to the National
Presidents of Jama’atu Nasril Islam and
the Christian Association of Nigeria
asked residents to report suspicious
elements around places of worship to
the authorities.

Three telephone numbers were
provided to such reports. They are:
09063872207, 09053872208 and
09053872209.

According to the memo which was being
passed round via whatsApp and the
internet, the terrorists plan to use
young girls.

The letter which was copied to the FCT
Minister, the FCT Permanent Secretary
and the acting Secretary, Area Councils
Services Secretariat reads in part:
“Intelligence reaching this office
revealed that insurgents are planning to
attack the Federal Capital Territory.

Their main targets are worship centres
and markets with the use of young girls
as members of aid groups to carry out
their planned attacks.

‘It is in view of the foregoing, I am
directed to inform you to communicate
the content of this letter to all mosques,
churches and markets across the FCT
for extra vigilance, particularly unknown
persons dressing as aid workers
loitering around the worship areas and
markets’
