EXPOSED: Men In Military Uniform Bombed Abuja

The car containing the bombs that exploded at Nyanya Motor Park in Abuja, last Monday, was driven to the park by two men in military uniform. The Head of Operations of Isiyaka Nagode Enterprises, Salisu Mukhtar, disclosed this in an interview in Abuja on Thursday.
In the words of Mukhtar: “Somebody that slept there told us he was there when two men in Army uniforms entered and parked a car there. Two of them came in two cars. They parked the car and left in the other car around 2am. The person that saw them could not challenge them because they were in military uniform. They left in the second car.
“When he woke up around 5am, he still found the car there. Because he was disturbed, he sent one of his boys to our office but we had not come by then. The bomb exploded when the boy he sent was returning and he died in the bomb blast.”

Mukhtar told Punch that seven of his men died in the bomb blast. “We have seen their corpses. They are in the mortuary now. Seven of them including loaders and one task force member are dead.”

Another trader at the terminal also saw the car being driven into the park. It was gathered that a trader, who was awake when the two "military" men arrived in separate cars had been making useful statements to security agencies in order to unravel the mystery surrounding the bomb blast.


When Punch contacted the Director of Army Public Relations, Brig.-Gen Laleye Olajide, he described the claim as a falsehood which should be dismissed. He said those making the claim were only on a mission to destroy the image of the Nigerian Army.

“Why did they not say so in the beginning when the explosion occurred if it was true? Why did they not say it at the time. This thing happened how many days ago, it happened since Monday and I have not read it anywhere. People said they even recovered the bodies of the bombers, they did not say the bodies were recovered with military uniform.

“Why are people just out to destroy the image of the Army? This is falsehood, it is not true. It is just another attempt to destroy the image of the Army,” he insisted.
