NAIJA!

Do not panic any more.
It was a confirmed FALSE statement.
Okiro has written letters/memos to news agencies/organisations about the falacy of the statement.

PUNCH, NEWS MAGAZINES AND OTHE MEDIAS, PLS THIS MESS MUST NOT REPEAT ITSELF.

Yes, Okiro has said the press misquoted him

@Topic

So when will the FG of Nigeria award a multi-billion dollar contract to fight terrorism in Nigeria? That is what I'm waiting to hear.

You mean from Yar'adull ?

We never even begin to fight hunger, we want to fight terrorism?? LMAO!!

It simply means more roadblocks

more settlement and more stray bullets

More misplaced everything. I wonder how people who don't know where their behind is will know the difference between Al-Queda and Okada.

Although police sources told our correspondents on Tuesday that the action was aimed at checking violent crimes in the cities, a top security source in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, claimed that the decision was informed by an alleged threat by a terrorist group, Al-Qaeda, to bomb some parts of Nigeria.

The alleged threat by Al-Qaeda was credited on Friday to the Inspector-General of Police, Mr. Mike Okiro. But Okiro refuted the report by the media on Sunday.

Investigation by our correspondent in Lagos on Tuesday, however, showed that the anti-terrorist squad sent to Lagos was currently operating from the MOPOL 20 and 22, Oduduwa Street, GRA, Ikeja.

A source said that finishing touches were being put to the squad’s permanent site in Akodo, a suburb of Lagos.

The 80-man squad is said to be commanded by Mr. Johnpaul Echatah, a Superintendent of Police, who hails from one of the Niger Delta states.

It was also gathered that the commander had undergone a series of training, including detection of weapons of mass destruction in the United States.

The commander is being assisted by an Assistant Superintendent of Police, who is also said to have experience in counter-terrorism.

Our source also disclosed that the Lagos State Police command had already attached two newly procured modern Armoured Personnel Carriers to the squad to enable it perform effectively.

Police ready for Al-Qaeda terrorists - Deploy anti-terrorist squads in Lagos, Port Harcourt, others - IG set to withdraw policemen from banks
From Bolaji Ogundele and Chris Agbambu - 14.05.2008 Nigerian Tribune

THE Nigeria Police Force has inaugurated an anti-terrorist squad, deploying it in Abuja, Port Harcourt, Lagos and Kano for effective coverage of the areas against possible terrorist activities.
Disclosing this to the press in Port Harcourt on Tuesday, the new Rivers State Police Commissioner, Mr Balla Hassan, said that he had resumed in the state to take policing to a new professional level.
Hassan, who announced the arrest of four suspected kidnappers in Ikpokiri, Ogu-Bolo Local Government Area of the state, reported to have kidnapped and raped three women, said the new anti-terrorist squad would work with the Mobile Police Squadron 48, Ahoada, to protect strategic facilities in the state, [/i][color=#000099][/color]

@all uncle IG Okiro seems not to be joking o, , he claims the police is ready to the stop the attack  that guy never ceases to amuze me. if COAS,CONS or COAFS had brought that issue up and had said they are ready then i can beleive. but the police?the same police i know?have tried giving them element of doubt but it just aint working

Naija is a funny place but Al Kini won't bomb Naija. Remember the bomb threat of the American Embassy in 2004? Shakara!

Sumbody mentioned Kenya and Tanzania, well, they are different from Naija. Naija is a DISASTER, so one will waste the bombs coming here.

Abeg jo, Mushin olosa straighttttttttttttttttttt,

Please Osama bin Laden is razz!!! Nobody wants him in Nigeria. Abegi, we don't want to be involved in his beef with George Bush. I have said it a thousand times. They should drop Bush and Bin Laden in the desert and have them duke it out man to man. Nigerians are looking for money, this one wants to do jihad. Na im know! Abeg carry your al-qaeda rubbish and go back to your country. It's not as if if we now join them the Arabs will stop slaving the Negro Sudanese o! Or they will stop looking down on us! I don't want! Carry go!

guys,

make una no mind okiro na just false alert im dey give make dem tink say him sabi work.

Nigerian police, in broad daylight, unleashed terror on the innocent people of Ogaminana and neither Okiro nor the president has taken any serious step on the issue. See here http://ebiraview..com/2008/03/images-of-ogaminana-after-police.html and here http://ebiraview..com/2008/02/black-day-in-ogaminana.html

If police could 'bomb' the people they are trained to protect, are they any better than al-qaeeda?

See the Al-queda the Nigerian "intelligence my yansh" authorities are looking for are right in the mirror looking back at them.

el rufai has done most of their job anyway,and he even made it easy by startn in abuja, if these 419 guys catch them,bin laden will drop everything he has before realising he s been played

Is dis shit really tru?? cos if it is, then I have a couple of targets in mind like

1. Ota farm. (Priority one target).
2. Babangidas crib in Minna, (Priority target one also)
3. Atiku's crib
4. House of reps
5. All state government houses
6. All police stations
7. All state houses of assembly
8. FFS all politicians and their decendants both past and present should be their prime target.


If they succeed, we just might give them asylum in calabar (Tinapa)

this is bullsh**t. Nigeria ni nigeria ko. those ones don't even care about us just like we don't care about them. Okiro and his boys need to step their game up for real on an honest note and stop thinking all those scare tactics can make naija maja like in the western world. He needs to revitalize an honest police that can protect the neighborhoods.

I hope this is not a new pre-bribe tactis for the police. If they pull u up in naija thses days just don't argue so they don't plant gun on you and call u al-Qaeda rep, not be chop chop don begin be that?. This is not to say that it couldn't be a true story afterall you have some northern facnatics who don already dey declare jihad on their fellow countrymen.

Al-qaeda to bomb Nigeria - Na IYABO OBASANJO's plan to completely erase her CORRUPT DEEDS and her father's EVIL DEEDS by destroying nigerians soul. U all remember say she no dey NAIJA and her father will join her soon!

To prevent this, Okiro shuld prison OBASANJO for d rest of his life & nigeria will be save

Nigeria is a developing and more or less a poorly managed country, so Al-Qaeda will never plan to bomb Nigeria because is notting to them. I think the IG is only trying to make name so that he can fly without wings.

this "bombing" thing is all crap

I just cant imagine a nigerian being a terrorist, nigeria is not america were u can easily scare people with all these nonsence.

All said & done,at my own perspective i wl say: that guy wey them dey call al-Qaeda,osama or any1 of them are just wasting their time & money tryn 2 bomb Nigeria, somebody shud just tell him that we aint those white,weak,easily scared folks in the US or UK.@Other posters:PATRIOTISM IS DA BEST, Shey u grab.If the guy(Al-Qaeda)Jst feel like showing his prowess,He should visit S.africa. Those white guys will surely accomodate him, ROFLMAO

what a waste of time, they shouldn't bother stressing themselves, our government are doing the bombing and dethroning themselves, so all Al-muthafunking-jobless-asswhip-Qaedians go get a life.

I know you guyz, some of you are even here on Nairaland, trying to blow up Nairaland also, i could only support u guyz on one condition, That u make me the Al-Qaeda's Chief Finance Secretary

@post
What are they waiting for?

kai nigerians we too dey like feel among.

na the word be that, kia, lmao

naija don bomb b/4 so,why bombing it again? our problem of coruption don damage naija than any bomb fit do.
