Planned Easter Attack: SSS discovered 60 Explosives in Gombe State



State Security Service(SSS)  yesterday discovered 60 Improvised Explosive Devices planted in different locations at the British Cotton Ginnery Area (BCGA) in Gombe State programmed to explode at the eve of Easter Friday.

 SSS director in Gombe State,  Mr Bitrus Asha, disclosed this at a briefing that there are a lot of explosives, numbering about 60 prepared in tins, meant to be detonated but were recovered.

"We are lucky that the tins were recovered and you are even advised not to go near the items with your handsets. Very soon, the items will be defused. We are lucky that we have made the recovery", He said.

Asha added that officers and other personnel of the service had reinforced patrol in the state capital to avert any untoward incident.

The incident has sparked off unprecedented tension and panic within the metropolis as residents were scared to venture out of their homes.
