A top security expert, Folorunsho Atta, while speaking on the alarm, urged “everybody to be on red alert” and called for heightened logistic support for security agencies to be able to do their jobs effectively.
“Let me start by urging residents of the state to be on red alert; report suspicious movement and persons to security agents since security is everybody’s business,” he said.
Analysing the impacts of a possible attack, he explained that “invasion of the South Western axis of Nigeria by terrorists could be dangerous and deadly. Lagos, the commercial capital of Nigeria, is in South West. With large presence of foreigners in Lagos and Ibadan, any terrorist attack in the South West will have adverse effect on foreigners in Nigeria.
“This will dent the image of our country. Security agents must not only be placed on red alert, but they must be guided with logistic support to enable them to crush any move by terrorists swiftly.
“With the rumour, the police in Lagos and other South West states must be put on 24-hour surveillance to be ready to rise to the occasion should anything untoward happen,” he stated.Tap Here for the Full Story
