The Inspector General of Police, IGP, Usman Baba has raised the alarm over plan by Boko Haram terrorists to attack major cities in the country, particularly Abuja and Jos, Plateau State.
This was
contained in a circular issued by the IGP and signed on his behalf by Acting
Commissioner of Police, Idowu Owohunwa.
The IGP told
the commissioners of police in Abuja and Plateau State to be on the alert.
The circular
said intelligence report at the disposal of the Inspector-General of Police had
uncovered plans by Boko Haram terrorists to attack major cities in the country,
