JUST IN: Boko Haram member arrested while trying to bomb Atiku’s residence in Adamawa
A suspected Boko Haram member has been reportedly arrested while scheming to bomb the residence of former Vice President Atiku Abubakar in Yola, Adamawa State.
The suspect, Jubrila Mohammed, was allegedly apprehended on Sunday, July 23, 2023, after he was seen acting suspiciously.
Mohammed told police that he was part of a plot to bomb Atiku’s residence, as well as faculties at the American University of Nigeria, Yola, and the Modibbo Adama Central Mosque.
The suspect is said to be in the custody of the State CID of the Adamawa Police Command currently.
The development was disclosed by Reno Omokri, a social commentator and an avid supporter of the 2023 presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). He called on the police to conduct a full and proper investigation and urged the Federal Government to heighten security around Atiku.
“This incident is too serious to be treated with levity, especially with the state of the nation,” Omokri said. “This could be more than meets the eye. Nigerians need to know what is actually going on.”
He wrote on Twitter:
“Yesterday, Sunday, July 23, 2023, at about 9 PM, a man acting suspiciously was detected at Waziri Atiku’s residence in Yola. Due to his erratic behaviour, he was accosted and restrained. The suspect, Jubrila Mohammed, was immediately taken to the police station and interrogated. During his interrogation, he confessed to being a member of the dreaded Boko Haram sect. He revealed a plot to bomb Waziri Atiku’s residence, along with faculties at the American University of Nigeria, Yola, as well as the Modibbo Adama Central Mosque. The suspect is now with the State CID of the Adamawa Police Command.”
“I, Reno Omokri, call on the police to conduct a full and proper investigation. Beyond that, the Federal Government is put on notice to heighten security around Waziri Atiku Abubakar. This incident is too serious to be treated with levity, especially with the state of the nation. This could be more than meets the eye. Nigerians need to know what is actually going on.”
