The Defence Headquarters has urged
Nigerians to be wary as fleeing members of the Boko Haram terrorists
from the Sambisa forest now disguise themselves as menial workers,
infiltrating villages in the North East.
A statement by the acting defence
spokesman, Gen. Rabe Abubakar on Tuesday in Abuja, said the escaping
terrorists did that to attack communities and towns in the region.
He said, “Available information
indicates that some fleeing Boko Haram terrorists are now disguising as
menial workers to melt into communities and towns with a view to
organising terrorists attack against our innocent citizens.
“The unfortunate recent incidents in Madagali and Maiduguri are instructive.
“The Defence Headquarters therefore
advises citizens to be on the alert and be wary of these tricks of the
defeated terrorists who are hell-bent on remaining relevant in spite of
their lost battle.”
He said that the sensitization becomes
necessary now to create security awareness to our citizens to be
conscious of some strange faces that can take menial jobs in their
communities or towns, especially now that festivities are around the
corner.
