The Federal Government of Nigeria on Wednesday said it was not treating with levity the report that a terrorist group, the Islamic State, was sending insurgents trained in Syria to the country as part of a terror exchange programme.

Indications emerged last week that leaders of Islamic State (IS) were sneaking battle-hardened extremists from Syria into Nigeria.

According to reports, some of the fighters were reportedly sent to the Middle East for training in a “chilling exchange programme”.

The report claimed that the insurgents are trained for possible attacks in Britain, quoting multiple sources as saying the strong links between Nigeria and the UK will make it easier for IS to send its killers to Britain.

But the government stated that the development was receiving the necessary attention, noting that all that needed to be done to protect the country was being implemented.

The Minister of Interior, Lt. Gen. Abdulrahman Dambazau (retd.), who disclosed this in Abuja on Wednesday, explained that the government was doubling its efforts to secure the country.

He said these while responding to questions from journalists shortly after the presentation of curriculum and training manuals for the Nigeria Immigration Service training institutions.

The minister said, “When information like this (influx of ISIS members into the country) comes, we do not take things for granted whether it is true or not because it is security information.

“Before now, we are prepared to ensure that everything we need to do security-wise is being done and such information also raises the alarm and we will double our efforts towards that.”

No country on earth is not favourable to attract terrorist than present day Nigeria ...All the factors suitable for such attraction are currently in abundant supply

Escalating poverty

High levels of bigotry and non tolerance

Poor uneducated population

No chalant govt

Large population of poorly educated religious fanatics

Buhari should sack his security chiefs as soon as possible ,the one sided regional appointment of major heads of security is doing Nigeria more harm than good.

Dey there dey masturbate.
Benue is already being cleansed in broad daylight.

The reality is that ISIS has taken over some government in western Africa. The Saudis and their Arab neighbors are funding Salafist jihadism and teaching of Wahhabi conservative doctrines in West Africa. Myopic Arabs are scrambling for power in Africa when they can't properly wash their arseee before prayers.

The Nigeria government headed by buhari is one of the many state currently in the hold of Jihadist. Little wonder while Boko haram terrorists had been conscripted into the ranks of our security institutions. Christian villages are continuously being bombed by the Airforce in the middle belt. Communally owned lands are been turned into fulani terrorist training camps under the auspices of 'ranching'.

Nigerians should be prepared to choose between two evils:

Prepare to sacrifice your religious belief to the conquest of Wahhabi Islam. Or,

Prepare to defend yourselves and your heritage through active strife, without fear of death.

Come 2019, vote for any thing, object, or party. Vote out APC!!

With God by our side, we shall defeat the Arabic backward enslavers.

This government is dumb... tufiakwa

What will break up Nigeria is not ipob

Thunder fire � buhari there

the borders in the north that can allow not only human but Cattles, unlike tight security we have in the south,be fooling thyself.

Believe buhari/APC at your peril.

YOU BETTER HIRE IPOB MILITANTS TO SECURE YOUR AIRPORTS IN 9JA

Many thought Nnamdi Kanu was a stupid man,but he saw this time longtime ago.

Find this hard to believe syria is a better haven for isis. Here they will easily be identified and massacred cos they aren't blacks

SSGN didnt u say there was no isis
