The prompt intervention of the anti-bomb squad drafted from Bompai Police headquarters averted what could have been the most deadly attack in the ancient city of Kano as police arrested three suspected terrorists for planting explosives inside a mosque on Friday.
The suspected terrorists had concealed the high volume Improvised Explosive Device (IED) in a plastic bag and neatly planted it inside the Fagge Mosque which has a capacity of about 15, 000 worshipers.


Speaking on the incident on phone, Kano State Commissioner of Police, Ibrahim K. Idris, confirmed that three people suspected to be terrorists were arrested within the mosque premises.

“The person that planted the explosive came inside the mosque before the prayer time. He concealed the explosive in a plastic can, dropped it, sat down, picked a Qu’ran and pretended to be reciting the Qu’ran.
“After some minutes, he went outside, came in again, sat in the same position and pretended to be reading the Holy Book. After a while, he went outside, abandoned the plastic can and never returned. At this point, the mosque committee suspected the plastic can and alerted the police.
“When the anti-bomb squad arrived the mosque, they brought the plastic can outside, checked the content and discovered it was an explosive; and they immediately detonated it,” he stated.

The police boss, however, advised residents to be vigilant and report any suspicious movement or strange item dumped anywhere to the police, pointing out that, “people should be very careful even in the mosques and churches.”

“Worshipers should not be allowed to come inside places of worship with strange materials,” Idris advised.
Alhaji Kabiru Isah, who worshiped at the mosque, gave a graphic account of the incident.
“It was by Allah’s grace that we were saved. People were already rushing into the mosque as prayer time was fast approaching when one of the mosque committee members observed a polythene bag abandoned inside the mosque.

“He was so suspicious of the content of the polythene bag; and he immediately raised alarm. The police was informed. At this point, three men outside the mosque who thought the bomb had exploded shouted Allahu Akbar (God is great). They were immediately identified as the masterminds of the evil act and the police arrested them with the help of the worshipers.

“I thank Allah for saving the lives of his servants. It would have been another tragic story; and only God knows what their motive and mission were. I believe they are detractors who simply want to cause confusion and commotion in the state, but Allah exposed them,” Isah told our correspondent.

Beaf: This event marks a turning point in Nigeria. Personally, I'm beginning to lose faith in the whole project; the SE/SS have little to lose from a breakup anyway. In many ways, preserving the entity is merely preserving our slavery and promoting the cruel exploitation of our resources to be wasted in the thieving pockets of the leaders of ungrateful peoples.

Dudu_Negro:

. . . the focus point of your drivel is oil resources. If control of that resource is synonymous with exploitation and enslavement, then who will control it when you, the SS and your bride the SE go together? The controller is the slave master, remember that.

Dudu_Negro:

It is time you adopt a correct way of critical analysis.

The man left and never returned. . .
Three men standing outside shouted Allahu Akbar, thinkingthe bomb had gone off. . .

If the man never returned, how was he captured?
If the three were standing outside, then they should see and hear everything that those standing with them witnessed and why were they the only ones who thought bombs went off, amongst multitude bystaqnders?
Allahu Akbar in thiscontext can be interpreteed to mean Grace be to God for bringing it to revelation and averting destruction.

You are just as clueless about Boko modus operandi as your fisherman boss in cowboy hats. Creek creep!
