Available details on Saturday showed that the bomb blast inflicted on the UN office in Abuja on Friday by the Boko Haram sect was part of the global activity of the dreaded Al Queada group to mark the 10 anniversary of the bombing of the American twin towers on September 11, 2001.
Sources confirmed at the weekend that the Nigerian intelligence networks actually shared the intelligence during the week and that while everyone was at high alert, the UN office was apparently not seen as a possible target.
It was confirmed that leaders of the Al-Queda group had concluded on a number of steps to take to mark the first decade of the bombing of the twin towers in the United States, which left over 3,000 persons dead.
Sources also confirmed that the dreaded group has the Boko Haram as its ally in Nigeria and that the sect was briefed on the steps to take in celebrating the 10th anniversary of 9/11.
“During the last week, information came out that the Al-Queada group was planning to mark 10 years of 9/11 and that as a result of the celebrations, some activities must take place in different parts of the world,” a source stated.
It was gathered that Boko Haram operatives,who had been collaborating with the Al-Queada in recent times, saw no difficultyin taking up the challenge.
It was also confirmed that having been cut short in its plan to markthe first anniversary of the death of its leader, Muhammed Yussuf in July, the Boko Haram decided to make the anniversary of 9/11 a top priority.
The source, however, stated that a fresh manhunt has begun for suspected leaders of the sect who are seen as bankrolling its operations.
It was gathered that President Goodluck Jonathan is unhappy with the management of bomb blast cases by the police.
A source said that whilethe president expected the police to make moves and prevent the spread of suicide bomber after the June 16 bomb attack on police headquarters in Abuja, the police apparently sat back andcontinued to tell the nation that the June 16 incident was not a suicide attack.(Nigerian Tribune)
