President of the Association of Industrial Security and Safety Operators of Nigeria (AISSON), Dr. Ona Ekhomu, has warned that Nigeria could be hit in the near future by terror group, Al Qaeda.
In a statement, he said the intelligence analysis conducted by the School of Management and Security from open source materials on the current phase of Jihad mounted by Al Qaeda on West African nations, showed that “Nigeria was in the next logical target for an active shooter attack by a six-man team of terrorists.”
“The most likely cities are Abuja or Lagos,” he added.
“The odds are in the favour of the terrorists to cause mass deaths in these attacks,” Ekhomu added, and advised the government and corporate security executives to take urgent proactive steps in preventing the attack.
“I urge the government to increase police visibility and also inject plain clothes police assets into high risk facilities.
“The Al Qaeda threat is more serious than the Boko Haram threat and it is hoped that the government and corporate security will take this threat more seriously and act to prevent spectacular attacks against soft and unprepared targets,” he added.
