The Nigerian Army has debunked the circular warning of imminent Boko
Haram attacks on various locations in the Federal Capital Territory
(FCT), and seven other states in the country.
The Director of Army Public Relations (DAPR), Col. Sani Usman, yesterday
called on members of the public to disregard the circular said to have
emanated from the Chief of Army Staff (COAS) office.
The circular titled: ‘Plans By Boko Haram Terrorists Group to Attack
In FCT and Other Parts of the Country, was allegedly signed by one
Colonel A. Suleiman on behalf of the army chief, warned that terrorists
“intend to target police stations and formations in Abuja, Kano and Imo
States.”
Part of the circular read: “Information at the disposal of this
headquarters strongly point to plans by Boko Haram terrorists group to
attack various locations in the country. The targeted areas include but
not limited to police stations, prison facilities, schools and market
places.
